I got question on slightly different topic.
I'm planning to buy mini-keyboard (as my travel one), connected through USB or bluetooth. I've found some at good prices, but they got somehow strange layout (88 keys, for example).
I know extkbd got many different layouts bundled-in, but none of them seems (at least judging by name) matching any of keyboard I've found. So, here goes my question - can I rest assured, that I'll be (probably) able to use such a keyboard without problem - if not by bundled layouts, maybe it's 100% sure that I can add my own ones, or submit something here, that can be included in extkbd update?
Excuse my (quite possibly) ignorance on this. I would just like to know that there is (relatively easy) doable way of adding such a keyboard, even if it include modifying some layout or whatsnot.
As some excuse for me, I can tell that my experiences with connecting USB keyboard via extkbd were quite easy - I just connected my (rather non popular, ho ever 105 keys generic) desktop keyboard, and it worked out of the box, 100%
