I have a japanese keyboard (pc106) and some keys still do not work after
upgrading to gnome-settings-daemon (2.23.6-0ubuntu2), although the Up ->
PrtScr problem is indeed fixed (I am using evdev managed keyboard, as
recommended).
The symbols that do not work and used to work before are ']' and '}'
(which in the japanese keyboard are in the same key), and the key for
'\' and '_' (underscore, one key again).
It still works fine in the console, and it used to work fine in hardy
with the appropriate xorg.conf. (The yen key has always been kind of
borken too, but that's a different bug, and not a regression like this).
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "jp106"
Option "XkbLayout" "jp,jp"
Option "XkbVariant" "106,"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
A simple way to see that something is broken (some keys are missing) is
when I try to add a japanese layout, attached goes a screenshot of that.
Notice that there is no key for ']', '}', which in the japanese keyboard
are on the same key (you use shift to select '}'), and take half of the
space assigned to 'Return' in the attached layout. Similarly for '\',
'_', this key should be taking half of the space assigned to 'Shift_R'.
