This should be fixed in hal-info (20080508+git20080601-0ubuntu0.8.04),
which has been released to hardy-proposed.

John, sorry, but this is no fix, that's a workaround and above that it's
highly incomplete as far as I know. I expect the same drawbacks as with
xmodmap.
Real fix is the corrected hal keymap, see above.
You might need to change the line
'contains="5220"' to 'contains_outof="5210;5220;5620"'
in /u
Here's a fix:
1) Open the following file as root: /etc/X11/xkb/keycodes/xfree86
2) Find the line = 107
3) Replace it with = 242
4) Find the line = 242
5) Replace it with = 107
6) Save and reboot, delete key will now work.
Tested on Extensa 5620 running Hardy.

Yes - on my 5620 with bluetooth, it's fine to remove this line without
affecting bluetooth functionality.

I deleted this line and now my keyboard works fine, but in ex5220 isn't
bluetooth module. Could anybody write if in acer laptops with
blueatooth, delete this line also can be used? If yes, this line should
be deleted permanently.

Just a warning - the xmodmap fix isn't complete. It won't let you use
combinations like shift+del. (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/181057/comments/28 )
The real fix is to modify the
/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-acer.fdi file, like in
https://bugs.launchpad.
And also for my Extensa 5620Z: xmodmap -e "keycode 242 = Delete" :-)
Thanks!

Ok, i've tracked down the line which causes the problem, by manually applying
each change from the working hal keymap file.
The problem is the line

Restarting hotkey-setup works for me as well with hardy on an Acer
Extensa 5220.
Although this is really not usable in a senseful manner.
The Xmodmap workaround ist not that of a good workaround, because Shift-

works now. WA

As I said, I use a Medion MD 42200. However, it seems like they share a
lot with those Acer laptops. Another theory might be that my keyboard is
dying. I'll check that against my Gutsy CD. As I said, the keys not
working are LeftArrow, DownArrow, PgDown, Backspace, Delete and Return.
However, Backs
delete is the only key not working here - what model laptop do you have?

I can confirm this on a German Medion MD 42200 keyboard. Pressing the
