I am running etch with gnome on an Intel machine. I have two seats set up, using GDM. The primary seat has a 104 key keyboard and is connected via a PS-2 keyboard connector. The second seat has a 104 key keyboard connected via USB.
On both keyboards, if I hit the UP key in the editing section of the keyboard, the program gnome-screenshot runs. The LEFT, RIGHT, and DOWN keys do nothing. This happens for all users, and both seats. This is especially since I am used to using the UP key and often hit it multiple times or hold it down, out of habit. This launches many instances of gnome-screenshot, which has on at least one occasions actually hung the computer in a state where it kept launching gnome-screenshot instances, about one a second, and could not be stopped. If I check Desktop-Preferences-Keyboard Shortcuts, there is no mention of gnome-screenshot. I have also searched all the /etc directories that have anything to do with X or Gnome for files containing the string gnome-screenshot and have found nothing. This behaviour seems to have started when I upgraded sarge to etch. Can anybody suggest how I can get back the the key functions that were present in Etch - and especially how to move gnome-screenshot to the Print key, where it should be! I've appended the InputDevice sections from XF86Config-4.
