Hi
UBUNTU 13.10 - I can confirm that NO method will allow for the Microsoft 7000 keyboard zoom in zoom out to be changed to page up page down or even scroll up scroll down NOTHING works.

I have had long experience with doing this and in 13.04 I got this to work and in 12.10 it worked, but 13.10 that doesn't work neither do the My Favourite Keys 1-5
all though the zoom in zoom out fader actually showed up in sudo evtest /dev/input/event5
I can confirm that UBUNTU 13.10 the Microsoft 7000 Ergonomic Keyboard's Zoom in and Zoom out does not work it will not through any method work as page up and page down as previously worked in 13.10 and 12.10 also the My Favourites buttons 1-5 still do not work.

If anyone can help with this I would appreciate it, any links to other
posts or direct involvement.

Thanks.

Title:
  Microsoft 7000 My Favourite Keys 1-5 not working, only working on 4000
  (of which I have both)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  (kernel-bug-exists-upstream - :~$ uname -r
  3.8.0-030800rc4-generic - updated with new info due to request by another user)

  I get this when running sudo /lib/udev/findkeyboards :
  USB keyboard: input/event2
  USB keyboard: input/event3
  USB keyboard: input/js0
  USB keyboard: input/mouse0

  using:
  sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event3

  the zoom + and - show up as in another bug as posted here
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/356075

  scan code: 0xC022D key code: zoomin
  scan code: 0xC022E key code: zoomout

  but the only other keys that do not show up are extra media
  programmable buttons 1 2 3 4 5

  of which on a previous Microsoft 4000 which is the same keyboard but wired USB work fine under:
  keyboard>shortcuts>navigation>
  switch to work space 1 = Launch5
  switch to work space 2 = Launch6
  switch to work space 3 = Launch7
  switch to work space 4 = Launch8
  switch to work space 5 = Launch9

  I have 5 desk top spaces in compiz cubed, so that in the previous
  Microsoft 4000 keyboard pressing 1 2 3 4 5 would actually just go
  directly spinning to that desk top, which was obviously very useful.
  None the less the buttons do not work on the new Wireless 7000 version
  and doesn't even register with sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4
  (different from the original question post, I have a different mouse
  plugged in at present)

  Here are the results comparing the 2 keyboards first off the 4000 and 2nd the 7000:

  As you can see in the 7000 wireless version there is an extra F13 as
  183 does not exist in the 4000 wired edition.
