The names would depend on a keyboard definition, a standard keyboard map
would just return the scan codes, as yours did.  A map for other
keyboards might include some specific titles, the particular one
depending on the map.

> Did you use: System/Preferences/Personal/Keyboard Shortcuts?
> If you do it that way, it will grab the actual scan code of the keyboard.

That was what I did, and how I got them.

> Volume Up = 0xb0

I get things like that, too, if I just had a bog standard keyboard
layout configured.  But, either way, with named keys or raw codes, those
keys don't do anything (the volume doesn't change when you press volume
keys, etc.).
