Acme works well for me. I only really use it for volume control, but it
works with the function keys on my laptop (Dell Inspiron). I think it
can work with anything that xev sees...
So, is there any way to get xev seeing your multimedia keys? Perhaps by
specifying a different keymap/keyboard in XF86config? I'm no expert on
this step.
