[Bug 201887] Re: Slim USB Apple Keyboard not working correctly..
Same problem since i updated from 7.10 to 8.04 !
F6 trick works fine for me (Slim Alu USB Apple keyboard on PC)
I also have two keys inverted, @# and <>
Don't need to use xmodmaps to use numpad, just set this (in french
sorry)
Système -> Préférences -> Clavier
Onglet "Options de l'agencement"
Rubrique "Diverses options de compatibilité"
Cocher : "Touches du pavé numérique par défaut" et "Les touches du pavé numérique se comportent comme sur un Mac".
As i sue quite same configuration at home and at work, i'll keep 7.10 at
work 'till this bug isn't solved.

Bug description:
I have the new Slim USB Apple Keyboard and in Hardy Heron (Beta) when I first boot up the alphabet keys work perfectly, but once I type in the numpad or a number, nothing happens. After nothing happens I'm not able to use my alpha keys, either.. When I type alphabet keys after trying a number the alphabet keys produce numbers like '4' and '3'.. And many of the keys don't do anything..
I have tried setting the keyboard up as default, and as an Apple keyboard by going to System > Prefs > Keyboard -- but nothing works.
If i then unplug the keyboard to reboot the keys usually work fine until I hit a number key or the keypad again.
