Description Marcelo Shima 2008-11-24 13:37:40 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When switching the keyboard model from pc102 to evdev the print screen keybind is not updated to the new one.
Seems that metacity uses the keycode instead of using the keysyms.

Steps to reproduce:
 1 ) Use evdev driver.
 2 ) Start the X session using xfree86 or xorg xkb rules.
 3 ) Up arrow will take an screenshot.
 4 ) Change keyboard model to evdev.
 5 ) Up arrow will still take an screenshot.
 6 ) "killall metacity" up arrow will not take a screenshot

Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
yes

Not completely sure about the duplicate marking, but very similar.
