The IBM Rapid Access keyboard have some extra buttons
 | 
			
		||||
on it to launch programs, control a cd-player and so on.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
These buttons is not functional when the computer is turned
 | 
			
		||||
on but have to be activated by sending the codes 0xea 0x71
 | 
			
		||||
to it.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
I've written the following hack to send codes to the keyboard:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
--------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
			
		||||
/* gcc -O2 -s -Wall -osend_to_keyboard send_to_keyboard.c */
 | 
			
		||||
#include <stdlib.h>
 | 
			
		||||
#include <unistd.h>
 | 
			
		||||
#include <sys/io.h>
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
 | 
			
		||||
{
 | 
			
		||||
  int i;
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  ioperm( 0x60, 3, 1 );
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  for( i = 1; i < argc; i++ ) {
 | 
			
		||||
    int x = strtol( argv[i], 0, 16 );
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    usleep( 300 );
 | 
			
		||||
    outb( x, 0x60 );
 | 
			
		||||
  }
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  return 0;
 | 
			
		||||
}
 | 
			
		||||
--------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
As root you can then call this program (in your boot scripts)
 | 
			
		||||
as "send_to_keyboard ea 71" to turn on the extra buttons.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
It's not a good idea to run several instances of this program
 | 
			
		||||
at the same time. It is a hack but it works. If you try to
 | 
			
		||||
send other codes to the keyboard it probably will lock up.
 | 
			
		||||
