I just recently switched to an X1 Carbon 4th gen, Debian with KDE
5.something. I also have a Lenovo wireless Thinkpad keyboard.
On the wireless keyboard F10 - F12s in combination with the Fn key being
held down initiate the multimedia events previous song, pause/play and next
song. Sadly the X1's keyboard has no multimedia buttons that I can see. At
the moment F10 - F12 are bound to silly things like mimicking OS X's expose
view and "search".
I'm wondering if there's a way to map the events that happen when I press
those less needed Fn key combos on my X1 to other things like multimedia
events so that it will more willingly get picked up by other music apps?
Thanks!
