Keyboard fun



Two things:

1. My pound sign is a hash in X.  Works fine in the console.

>From XF86Config-4:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "keyboard"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "logicordless"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "gb"
EndSection

2. I have a Logitech cordless keyboard.  I'd like to assign some of the
"special" keys in Sawfish.  When I use xev, I get events generated e.g. 

KeyPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 673540, (18,21), root:(63,139),
    state 0x0, keycode 162 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 673733, (18,21), root:(63,139),
    state 0x0, keycode 162 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

KeyPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 674085, (18,21), root:(63,139),
    state 0x0, keycode 164 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x40, subw 0x2400002, time 674259, (18,21), root:(63,139),
    state 0x0, keycode 164 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

But when I go into gnomecc to configure the shortcuts, and click "grab",
it doesn't respond when I press the key.

If anyone can shed any light I'd be very grateful.
