  This is related to bug #111024 (and many other similar bugs).
  
  
  The messages in the summary appear in my acer laptop when pressing keys that doesn't run and are not assignable through keyboard shortcuts utility. I think a solution to this could be displaying a gui to the user every time this message appears in the log files to help the user to customize keys that don't run out-of-the-box. It could be a great usability option to make Ubuntu more user-friendy.
