I'm trying to re-purpose the ideas here:
http://insecure.org/sploits/xsecurekeyboard_fequent_query.html
here:
http://www.cs.bgu.ac.il/~orlovm/code/realkey.C
and here:
http://www.acm.vt.edu/~jmaxwell/programs/xspy/xspy.html
to make a hotkey program that is immune to the full-screen lockout effect in programs like ppracer. Unfortunately I'm having trouble getting XQueryKeymap to see all my multimedia keys. The topmost program tends to see the most though.
Are there any low-level X mechanisms that might prevent XQueryKeymap from seeing changes in some key codes? Note that the global KDE hotkeys for volume and such work just fine, so *some* applications can see the keys, just not while there's a full-screen app running.
