patch for support BenQ X500

patch for files:

xkeyboard-config/rules/base.lists.part
xkeyboard-config/rules/base.xml.in
xkeyboard-config/symbols/inet

Actually, your keyboard is essentially same as BenQ730. I just added two keys to existing description from your definition - and I think there is no huge problem to have XF86AudioMedia (which is used in all I6D definitions) instead of XF86Fn. This way I avoid creating duplicated keyboard, if you don't mind. I'll put your keyboard into the compatibility list though.

Is this ok?

PS I am thinking about consolidating all BenQ X keyboard into one...

Merging is a good idea. :-)

But I think FN_LOCK should *not* generate XF86AudioMedia, therefore I have
changed the numbers a little, which should match better:

key <I02> { [ XF86ModeLock ] };
key <I2B> { [ XF86Go ] };
key <I5F> { [ XF86ScreenSaver ] };

But could you also add the comment, which explains how to setup these two
keys until they are recognized by default from the linux-kernel?

// to make the FN_LOCK and CONFIG key work on the BenQ X500 , use ...
// setkeycodes e074 130 # KEY_PROPS  from /usr/include/linux/input.h
// setkeycodes e075 171 # KEY_CONFIG from /usr/include/linux/input.h

Thank You,
Kiro

Great, I like this one even better!

Of course!
