Bug Description

In the package ir-keytable version Ubuntu 0.8.6-1ubuntu2 the file /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_pad is missing some key scancodes as defined in rc_imon_pad.c driver for the Veris RM200 remote. This means some buttons on the remote have no action, ir-keytable -t does not report them being pressed. Appending the following to the file makes the remaining buttons work. I think this highlights another bug; ir-keytable should, optionally and in concert with the rc_imon_pad driver, report key events that are unprocessed.

I'll try to fix this issue with a new upstream version.

Does purging ir-keytable and a reboot help?
