 Priority:  minor                |   Milestone:  unknown

 Severity:  low                  |

 In the key binding editor it is possible to assign a special key to an
 action. However, this key does not actually get properly recorded.

 examples of such keys: XF86MenuPB XF86Tools XF86iTouch.

 this prevents mythtv from using multimedia buttons on the keyboard or my
 ATI Remote Wonder II without going through lirc.


 Also, these keys do not get proper names when being detected -- instead I
 get a little square. I think that mythtv is not using KeysymDB provided by
 X11, which I think is the easiest way to support all keys.
