It could be that the key codes being sent have changed. Is this for 'normal'
keys, or more special ones like the Windows key? The latter won't work by
default, and needs to be explicitly enabled. For the Windows key, open
your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the following line to the InputDevice section
for your keyboard:
Option "XkbOptions""altwin:meta_win"
Restart X, and the Windows key will act like another meta key.
You can test this using xev. Launch xev from a terminal, press keys and see
their codes in the terminal. That is what is being passed to the X server
when they are pressed/released.
