From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

On my last install they did work without changes. Any reason why it would not this time?

Not that I can think of except maybe that whatever program was managing those hotkeys may have changed. If they show up as the wrong thing in xenv then that means your keyboard layout is set incorrectly.
