christian, on 13.10 (this also works on earlier versions), please
install the "evtest" package and use "sudo evtest". This lets you choose
your input device and basically gives the same information, but is a tad
easier to use.

Title:
  Pressing usb keyboard multimedia keys doesn't print anything with sudo
  /lib/udev/keymap -i input/eventX

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've got a multimedia wireless keyboard. When I try to type:

  /lib/udev/findkeyboards

  I get:

  USB keyboard: input/event4
  AT keyboard: input/event3

  Then, if I type:

  sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4

  pressing the multimedia keys print nothing in the command output
  (while the standard keys print output as expected. Example:
  scan code: 0x70018   key code: u).

  I'm using the 3.2.0-41-generic kernel with Lubuntu 12.04, but this
  problem is present also in other kernel versions.

  The udevadm info --export-db (with connected and not connected
  keyboard) output and the diff command output are attached to this bug
  report.
