Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

System: Sony Vaio VGN-A230P
OS: Ubuntu 10.10 i686

The Alt (both right and left) and Fn keys were working correctly in
Ubuntu 10.04 i686 and previous versions but after upgrading to 10.10
i686, the keys do not work.

Since the upgrade had broken the keys, I tried doing a full reinstall
(destroying the original partitions as well) but once completed, the
system still does not recognize the keys.

I've also tried xev and it does recognize the key's I've tried except
for Alt and Fn.  I don't see much else to do other than changing the
keymaps.  I've tried 101, 104 and 105

Unless somebody has something to try by 11/26, I'll reinstall 10.04 and
also try a live cd
