I will personally take exception to _both_ of those responses.

Since the first *Natty flame* if you will, came from me -- but also
because the _only_ tech response to help came from me.

In my first reply:
How are the Home key and Windows logo key advertised to work?

In my second reply:
You should start with "xev" to determine the keycodes generated by these
keys.

And the OP has not yet replied answering the first or stating what output
he got with xev.

The rest of the thread has just been useless static from you guys.

So, Ubuntu *users*, help the OP!
