i was looking for some solution to have my keys for mute, vol up and down working in kde:4.1 but since i'm using it kmilo isn' working and no one want's to work on this and i've found some patches on ubuntu and the work for me with no problem

Reproducible: Always

Well this sound weird to me. Why not handle it on acpi level? So it can actualy work everywhere not for phonon using apps?

Convince me for adding this :]

Scarabeus it would be nicer to have it on acpi level but what i wanted to have are those volume bars which were in kmilo package, what i know for now on there is no kmilo in 4.1 or even in 4.2 branches, and none of kde:4 packages got those volume bars... and as far as i know noone wants to support those keyboard shortcuts and escpecially make this volume bars for me it is needed when i use my laptop

The current stable version is kmix-4.3.1, if this still applies to it, please reopen.
