A pmac g5 running OS X 10.3 and a PC attached to a Power Reach ADC/DVI
KVM. On the kvm I am using a cheapo USB KB and MS optical intellimouse.
Every key works fine on the mac side except for the media key (DVD drive
eject key) which on this keyboard there seems to be no equivalent
comination that I can find. I wanted to spare my beautiful mac keyboard
the punishment of being used in games (pc side) so I opted not to have
it on the kvm. I do however have it attached to the back of my Cinema
display so that when switched to the mac I can at least eject the dvd
drawer. It's taking up deskspace being used as nothing but an ejection
key, so my question is: How can I emulate the media key on a pc
keyboard, or send a signal to the mac via software (such as perhaps
running a program on the bsd side that ejects the tray)?
TIA - Any help is appreciated.

I finally found the answer, pressing and holding the F12 key will do the
same thing as the media key for those that need the info. Thanks.
