Bug#442316: Known behavior; workaround exists

[Ruben Faelens <parasietje@gmail.com>]

This is known behaviour. It has been this way since 2006-05 (see 
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7067). No-one knows for sure 
where the problem is; the evdev subsystem sends other keycodes than the 
PS/2 input subsystem.

My opinion is that the X.org evdev-driver should provide it's own 
keycode->keysymbol mapping for the EVDEV keycodes. This is my X.org 
configuration:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "logitech_keyboard"
    Driver  "evdev"
    Option  "Phys"  "*/input0"
    Option  "Name"  "Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard"
    Option     "AutoRepeat"    "200 20"
    Option     "XkbModel"      "evdev"
EndSection

Note the 'XkbModel' line. You can easily load other keyboard mappings 
using setxkbmap, or set them in the xorg.conf. As long as XkbModel is 
'evdev'.

Your Super_L and Super_R keys will not work. I fix this by using a 
.Xmodmap file with

add Mod3 = Super_R
add Mod3 = Super_L

This fixes the problem. However, the evdev input driver should note that 
XkbModel has not been set to evdev.
