Andreas Moog, especially for HP, unfortunately it is a common misconception that the dmi.modalias is the full computer model as noted on the sticker. However, for other vendors this information is always in the Bug Description (ex. Dell, Lenovo). One may go to the following URL for verification of this:
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=hp%20Presario%20C500||&searchtype=s-002

As well, it would be important to know which model specifically from the
sticker (not dmi.modalias) this is encountered with, as folks can be
better prepared when making informed computer purchases.

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.
