I'm running unstable and I found it in package xbase-clients. I've had a
go on my keyboard and get this...
Left winkey
KeyPress event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
root 0x31, subw 0x2600002, time 341690521, (33,38), root:(619,60),
state 0x10, keycode 115 (keysym 0xffe7, Meta_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
Right winkey
KeyPress event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
root 0x31, subw 0x2600002, time 341734347, (33,38), root:(619,60),
state 0x10, keycode 116 (keysym 0xff20, Multi_key), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
Menukey
KeyPress event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001,
root 0x31, subw 0x2600002, time 341757806, (33,38), root:(619,60),
state 0x10, keycode 117 (keysym 0xff67, Menu), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""

KeyToGrab(F10), WithModifier(Control), WithAction(Workspace10)
KeyToGrab(Left), WithModifier(Control), WithAction(PrevWorkspace)
KeyToGrab(Right), WithModifier(Control), WithAction(NextWorkspace)
I assume this is fairly generic - I lifted my .bbkeysrc from my Mandrake
setup at work and dropped it into my Debian ~/ at home as Potato was
qt-less.
Combining the two...
Just had a go with the xev output, assuming that Meta_L, Multi_key & Menu
are the codes to use, and dropped the following into .bbkeysrc:
KeyToGrab(Multi_key), WithModifier(None), WithAction(PrevWorkspace)
KeyToGrab(Menu), WithModifier(None), WithAction(NextWorkspace)
...and it works :) I can drop the Left/Right mapping now so bbkeys
doesn't swap workspaces on me when things get a bit hairy in lxdoom and I
need to turn *and* fire at the same time;-)

No, thank you...I've been wanting to get that going for ages, but hadn't
seen about xev.
