Well, in the HP the keys don't do nothing it seems not even "xev" reports
anything when I use them, but they could be wrongly mapped maybe...

On the acer I do see keycodes from xev, but Im using lumina and If I try to
map them to anything it doesn't work... I'll see what happens after reboot
though.
