Comment 64 for bug 636311

The 'Aubergine' package also fixes that problem for me. Thanks! :-)

It does, however, do something a bit like marshals' problem (comment 63). I only have one monitor, but the first time I use one of the 'special keys', the mouse jumps to the top left corner (presumably 0,0). I've attached the output from xev as this happens, although it doesn't mean much to me. The special key performs its appropriate function as well, and after that, everything behaves as expected (the jump is a one time thing after starting X).
