Comment(by DanKrejsa):

 Hi Gary,
 I also saw the Up cursor key being interpreted as PrintScreen, but for me
 the 'xkbcomp $DISPLAY :100' command fixed that.  Evidently there are
 variations
 among distributions in this regard, even among Fedora distributions.

 Tomeu also mentioned that the xkbcomp command was failing (or at least
 emitting an ugly warning message) on a Ubuntu Intrepid.  So, the xkbcomp
 seems not to work in all cases. I guess it's at best another partial
 workaround.

 - Dan
