[perhaps OT] Fedora and Ergonomic 4000 special keys

Dear all,

I have recently bought a Natural Ergonomic 4000 keyboard, and would like to
bind the special keys to Eclipse macros. The problem is that Eclipse does
not seem to recognize any of the keys.

Running showkeys -k works for all the special keys, so the Kernel must see
them. From emacs, the "silver" keys 1-5 (for example) are recoghized as
XF86Launch5 - XF86Launch9, so I don't really see the problem...why can't
Eclipse see them as well? Pressing the keys in the terminal also produces
no reaction, so maybe it is a mapping problem?
