xbindkeys, например.

actkbd

Сам использую следующий init.d к нему

И правило в udev, например

LABEL="_SELECT_"
# Set here any number of rules, detecting needed devices and mapping them into aliases. Beware, that
# rules should match for ony one device, or symlink will fail. End every rule with GOTO="_START_" to
# autolaunch actkbd service on plug/unplug, if you want to (you are, probably, don't want to do this for
# permanent devices, like internal keyboard for laptops). "SYMLINK+=..." part is mandatory, you don't need
# to change it, setting ENV{__ALIAS} is also mandatory, and this is what you _need_ to change:
