I've got alsa working but I really miss using the mute and volume up/down on my keyboard. The keyboard i have is a lousy microsoft keyboard with a few extra buttons along the top. I'm planning on buying one of the new logitech gaming keyboards too are there special linux keyboard drivers or do I have to bind the commands somehow.
