The Logitech diNovo Mini is a palm-sized keyboard directly targeted at Home Theater PC users. It is a bluetooth keyboard that incorporates a full QWERTY layout with a touch-pad mouse.

Media Buttons
The keyboard includes a row of extra buttons along the top, plus some shifted, alternate, blue function buttons. At the time of writing (2008-08-22) these buttons are not natively supported under Linux or MythTV. However it's possible to re-map these keys to something useful for MythTV using xmodmap.
The program xmodmap takes a plain text file of key-codes (determined with the xev program), and the keystroke this code should generate.

(Note: The blue alt-keys are not mapped to anything useful in MythTV, this is left as an exercise for the reader!)
Save the above to a file named .Xmodmap (or anything else, it doesn't matter). To bring the above functions up immediately enter:
xmodmap /home/mythtv/.Xmodmap
Now you need to make sure the above will come up each time the MythTV system is rebooted. This is system dependent, but basically whenever mythfrontend is about to start xmodmap should be run.
