Edit Reason: dpkg-reconfigure locales
)
OK, I tried that. But what you can't tell from this is that where it says scroll lock I was actually pressing num lock. It did log num lock a few times but I was pressing something else. I more or less started with F9 and went through F12, a few times. I pressed Esc between. I had 3 rxvt windows open, one for xev, one to paste into later, and one to pkill xev. I used the Shift-Fn-Pageup to backscroll up, then point-click, shift and drag down to get the whole thing highlighted, then clicked in the log window and did shift-fn-insert to paste. The F8/insert key seems normal. Then I saved as text, copied to /tmp, opened in Firefox and copied and pasted here.
The KeymapNotify with zeroes is a start of an xev run. When I press Fn by itself nothing gets logged in xev. This was all F9 to F12 except Esc between to mark run ends.
I think it's a matter of keymaps, because there are 3 levels at least. There's one set by locale (I'm using C.UTF-8), then one by "keyboard model" (I'm using "Generic 105key PC (int)") then a 3rd by "keyboard layout" (I'm using English (US)). Not Cherokee, dvorak, etc.
Using dpkg-reconfigure locales which brings up a Whiptail dialog box like when you install or like raspi-config gets you. I have a few Raspberry Pi computers too and Raspbian is mostly like Debian.
I think if you open up a PBP and write down the numbers on the back of the keyboard, then Google them you might be able to find a manufacturer's data sheet that will list raw hardware scan codes. I think I've seen them for other keyboards. I'm not sure I trust what xev says, I'd rather trust showkey -s because that doesn't need X running. My Numlock key, shifted with Fn, gives me 0x46 0xC6 each time I push it. That's 70, 198 in decimal. I see the same thing if I ctrl-alt-f2 and look at a raw console without X. That 70 should probably be 71 or 72 to be NumLock.
