FVWM: How does FVWM read from the keyboard?

I'm not real clear on exactly what question to ask or how to ask it (short
version), so here's the long version:

   I have a keyboard, don't see a brand name, model SK-6000 (made in China), that
has the Windows keys on it and one other key I've never seen before (upper right
hand corner, larger than the others, has a diamond shape arrow on it pointing
left).
   The windows keys kick out a keycode (125 - 127 on showkey, 115-117 on xev),
but the "diamond" key in the upper right hand doesn't. xev and showkey -k don't
even register that it's been pressed. showkey -m returns on keyevent:

àhàè ( 0xe0 0x68 0xe0 0xe8 )


These questions probable can't be answered here, but I didn't get a response on
the Red Hat list, so:
Running Red Hat Linux 7.0
1) What do I have to do to the windows keys so that FVWM will recognize them?
2) What do I have to do to Red Hat so that the diamond key kicks out a keycode.
