Hi all!
Does anybody know which part of TDE controls XF86RaiseVolume / XF86LowerVolume? I need to
remap these 2 keys to XF86LaunchA / XF86LaunchB but TDE always answers with the OSD volume
bar, even when I remap the beys with xmodmap ...

Hi Nik,
tqt3 maps XF86XK_AudioRaiseVolume to TQt::Key_VolumeUp and equivalently for
XF86XK_AudioLowerVolume. Those TQt keys are
then used by KMilo to control the volume up/down and the related OSD visualization.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Yes, this helps a lot. I did not realizie that kmilo grabs keys before khotkeys sees them.
The workaround would be to uninstall kmilo.
But is there a way to reverse that order, so khotkeys sees and grabs the keys before kmilo
does ?

That is not entirily correct. Both KMilo and KHotkeys use global accelerators.
Depending on which one run first, the same key could be handle by one or the other. I
played around a bit with the
"lower volume" key and by stop/starting kmilo or by enabling/disabling a khotkey
action, I could get the button to
respond to the first or the second program. What is really needed is a way to change the
hotkeys used by kmilo from the
TDE control panel (I thought this was already possible but I can't seem to find it
anymore).
Cheers

Interesting. I managed to get XF86LowerVolume be handled by xbindkeys, but not
XF86UpperVolume. I cannot enable/disable kmilo using the TDE control panel. There is a
kmilo checkmark unter "IBM Notebooks", but it is enabled and greyed out.

Hi Nik,
in TCC -> TDE Components -> Service manager, you can enable/disable and start/stop
kmilo in the bottom half of the module.
