Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

In a recent update (this morning or yesterday or so) somthing changed in
my karmic system so that the F9, F10, F11 and F12 keys no longer are F9,
F10, F11 and F12. Instead they suddenly produce XF86AudioMute,
XF86AudioLowerVolume, XF86AudioRaiseVolume and XF86Eject.

I don't know why this happened, and it is very annoying, since I had
bound things to those function keys, both in Emacs and in the Keyboard
Shortcuts preferences, and in Gnome Do.

I guess package here, perhaps the problem is at the XKB level or so. I'm
not an expert on these things.

My laptop keyboard has separate volume buttons, and they work as
expected.

Please make F10 F10 again.
