Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.22
Severity: normal


Using any of the logic* XKB symbol definitions will produce duplicate keycodes
for some of the XF86* keys. On this particular machine (using logicink symbols)
xev gives

KeyPress event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x3a00001,
    root 0xa3, subw 0x0, time 1203483398, (43,158), root:(329,921),
    state 0x0, keycode 176 (keysym 0x1008ff13, XF86AudioRaiseVolume), same_screen YES,
    XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 175
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x3a00001,
    root 0xa3, subw 0x0, time 1203483507, (43,158), root:(329,921),
    state 0x0, keycode 176 (keysym 0x1008ff13, XF86AudioRaiseVolume), same_screen YES,
    XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 175
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 

This is annoying since no program seems to be able to catch that key correctly
any more. This is probably the same bug as 
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/37341

And the same workaround works here as well: "xmodmap -e 'keycode 175 ='"
cures the beast.

Please feel free to downgrade this to wishlist for as long as xmodmap stays
alive.
