FVWM: problem with a wireless logitech keyboard

[Pierre Frenkiel]

hi,
I have a strange problem with a wireless Logitech keyboard (MK330)
Everything works properly, but 2 hotkeys, which behave strangely, either on
X11/fvwm or in console mode
To get the keysyms, I use xev (without programming the keys in fvwm config)
- the hotkey 1 gives me the WindowList
- the hotkey 5 gives me 2 outputs
d (keycode 40)
Super_L (keycode 133)
in console mode, same kind of strange behaviours, with the "showkey" command
for any key, one gets 2 outputs. For example, for "a"
keycode press 30
keycode release 30

for hotkey 1, I get 3 outputs

keycode press 15
keycode release 15
keycode release 56

for hotkey 5, I get 3 outputs

keycode press 32
keycode release 32
keycode release 125

I really unable to figure out the origin of these behaviours.
Anybody has an idea?

best regards,

Looks like a macro replay to me.

Logitech support for Linux is a shame. I am Swiss, all my mouses was
logitech ones, that from the first 3 buttons mouse they made, but not
the last one. The only logitech goods that have a good linux suport is
their webcams, and that only because it is an independent website that
provide full functional drivers for them.

If it is like some high-end mouse they made, and if you have a windows
box, you can try to install it on windows and reprogram it with a more
standard set-up. If you are lucky enough, it will work fine on linux
after that.
