knomeit's not any key, the XF86* keys represent certain media keys which you might or might not have on your keyboard19:57
knomeValeyard1_, ^19:57
knomefor example XF86HomePage might be a key with a "home" (usually represented by a house) symbol19:57
Valeyard1_weird, i have that key but it didnt work19:58
knomeit's not foolproof, the system needs to recognise that key too19:59
well_laid_lawnyou can run  xev  in a terminal then press some keys to see how the system sees them20:01
Valeyard1_thanks guys, my keyboard probably doesn't have these keys20:06
