I have a problem similar to this:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=102066

My keyboard has a label on it that says the following:
Product Name: KB 200
Model NO: GK-060002
Trade Name: KYE SYSTEMS CORP
Made in China
There is also Genius label on it :-)

$ uname -srm
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p2 amd64

$ usbdevs -dv
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x0000),
nVidia(0x0000), rev 1.00
  uhub0
 port 1 addr 2: low speed, power 100 mA, config 1, NetScroll +
Traveler(0x002e), Genius(0x0458), rev 1.10
   ums0
 port 2 addr 3: low speed, power 100 mA, config 1, USB Keyboard(0x1603),
vendor 0x1241(0x1241), rev 2.80
   ukbd0
...

The problem is that under X xev program doesn't show any events for
pressing of extra keys (6 multimedia ones and 3 ACPI ones).

In Linux xev does show key events for those keys.

Is it possible at present at all to get those keys working ?
Where to dig ?
