hotkeys and lineak do something like this, but unfortunately don't
actually map the keys to keystrokes (just events).  You could do some
web searching and find out how to do it with xmodmap - this is built
into X, and is pretty powerful (but quite cryptic for many things).

If you figure it out, please let me know - I have one of those
keyboards, too.
