Public bug reported:
After upgrading my Gutsy system to xorg-xserver-core version 2:1.3.0.0
.dfsg-12ubuntu8.3 my left-hand Super and ALT keys swapped behavior.
Pressing Super acts like ALT now.
I didn't change anything else in the system. My keyboard is still set to
Microsoft Natural (as it was). When I go to Keyboard Shortcuts to try to
set my Lock Screen shortcut to CTRL+ALT+L, pressing CTRL+ALT+L marks
"CTRL-Super L". And if I do CTRL+Super+L, the screen shows "CTRL-ALT-L".
Yet more, if I do CTRL+ALT+F1 nothing happens. If I press CTRL+Super+F1
I'm sent to the first console! Once I'm in the console, ALT goes back to
being ALT; so, pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 switches to the second console and
so on...
This told me that the swap happened in X.
I'll attach my xorg.conf config shortly. I have no ~/.*modmap* files in
my $HOME and Compiz is turned off (as it doesn't work with multi-users,
and this is a family desktop).
