Yes, and it is not recognized when I press the key. From my research
the key will have to be handled by HAL or DeviceKit which I do not
know how to configure. I've been working on this since August and
still have not figured it out. I'm at my wit's end.

Does anyone know how I can contact the Ubuntu HAL or DeviceKit developers?
