https://askubuntu.com/q/1336575/625814
I've got a new notebook HP Omen 15, manufactured in 2020. I has
Calculator key, this key is actual normal media key.
Pressing on it launches calculator only once, after the OS is booted. No
reaction for other presses.
If I run xev and press Calculator I see insanely many messages about
pressing and releasing XF86Calculator key:
...

If I run showkey, it always shows scan codes and key codes for that key:
$ sudo showkey -s

since the X server is also reading /dev/console ]
press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...

^Ccaught signal 2, cleaning up...
Debugging with evtest shows that this key doesn't generate any events,
while some other keys do:
