 Not really. At the time when I asked, he couldn't tell me more than
 "there is a magic offset of 8 somewhere". What is strange is that I
 couldn't find this offset elsewhere in the scancodes. But I must admit
 that I have had hard times following the trajectory of these codes all
 the way long from my keyboard to my X windows ...
 
 Anyway, I have absolutely no objection if you think that it's better to
 use codes from OpenBSD's patch. What I would like mostly is that my keys
 would generate some keycode, no matter the value :)
