Title:
  scroll lock doesn't work, which affects users of badly designed
  backlit keyboards

Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The scroll lock key has no effect, importantly it doesn't cause the
  scroll lock light on the keyboard to toggle. (Never comes on). This
  means I can't use the backlight on my keyboard, as it relies on scroll
  lock.

  ----

  The keyboard in question:
  http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132131
  Xenta Black Illuminated Mini USB Multimedia keyboard - UK layout
  model sk-020el

  This keyboard appears to rely on the scroll lock light for controlling
  key illumination (one more switch wouldn't kill them, but hey, it was
  very cheap and I rather like it!)
