Funny, I had the same problem with keymappings. Actually, "AltGr" gave 
{"Cursor left", "AltGr" }, "right Ctrl" was "Enter",  "Insert" 
called "Ksnapshot" and os on. 

After struggling some hours I removed .trinity and started all over. Now most 
things work, except the "cursor up" key does not work in xine.

I'd like to kno what's going on there, but I have no clue :-(
