Let's test it again. Fire up console and xev like you did before and look it the output of xev has changed. You should see the following now, if you type the "3" special key at the top:

<code>KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x156, subw 0x0, time 129615035, (279,39), root:(830,447),
    state 0x0, keycode 170 (keysym 0x1008ff43, XF86Launch3), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x156, subw 0x0, time 129615155, (279,39), root:(830,447),
    state 0x0, keycode 170 (keysym 0x1008ff43, XF86Launch3), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False
</code>
I have selected quite common names for the most keys. For some of them I found no equivalent and decided to call them XF86Launch1 - XF86Launch9. The Zoom handle works like mouse wheel with Li Yu's patch. In case you want to change the symbol names, take a look at /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB.
 
 Please notice that all F-keys have to possible symbols, which depends on the state of the F-Shift-key (it's right of the F12 key). I'm sure you have already seen the LED beneath your thumbs that indicates the key's state.

 In most Window Managers and Desktop Environments you can assign short cuts to keys and/or key combinations. For example:
 
 KDE: In KDE control center go to "Regional & Accessibility" --> "Keyboard shortcuts"
 Xfce4: Start Xfce menu --> "Settings" --> "Keyboard Settings" --> go to tab "Shortcuts"
 IceWM: Edit the file ~/.icewm/keys
 Fluxbox: Edit the file ~/.fluxbox/keys
