Hi dear Awesome users,

I bought a new laptop recently (Dell Inspiron 14-7437, on the French Dell
site), and I tried it on Ubuntu where all worked well. So I decided to
install ArchLinux with AwesomeWM. Most of devices work well (touchpad,
touchscreen, keyboard backlight, etc...), but I'm issuing some problems
with the keyboard.

While no binding is assigned to the combination : Meta + Shift + F1, xev
output what expected as you can see here : http://pastebin.com/nKd5ezhP

But as soon as I add a binding to this combination in my Awesome
configuration :

awful.key({modkey, "Shift"}, "F1", volume.toggle)

The xev output changes -- http://pastebin.com/H9NEA9aA -- and so the
callback assigned to the binding isn't executed...

This weird behaviour happens with other keys like F1, F2, F3, Print Screen,
or Up/Down arrow keys, but not on others like F11, F12 or Left/Right
arrows...

I don't know from where it can come from... If anyone can help me to
investigate this, it would be very welcome !! Thanks.


Regards,
Alexis BRENON
