Since the slides xsls depend on the regular docbook xsls, inline
elements like keycombo will be formatted correctly if you include them,
even if the document is invalid. To get a slides dtd with all the
elements in the full docbook, do the following:

1. Make a copy of slides-custom.dtd (part of the slides package), call
it something like slides-full.dtd.

2. In slides-full.dtd, change 

<!ENTITY % sdocbook.dtd SYSTEM "../docbook/simple/sdocbook-custom.dtd">
%sdocbook.dtd;

to

<!ENTITY % docbook.dtd SYSTEM "path/to/4.1/docbookx.dtd">
%docbook.dtd;

3. Use slides-full.dtd and you have your keycombos :)

Btw. there's a slide show feature in Opera that only requires some
simple css and has a nifty full screen mode: 
http://www.opera.com/support/operashow/ It works in the Windows version,
but when I tested it on Linux the feature appeared not to be fully
baked.
