If you "lose" your arrow keys under KDE4.x, try this ...
I've been goofing around a lot lately with various manifestations of KDE4.almost2. Somewhere along the way I "lost" my arrow keys. I tried a lot of fiddling around till I finally stumbled on this easy workaround:
Go to System Settings / General / Regional and Language / Keyboard Layout and disable keyboard layouts. This returned my arrow keys to full functionality.
This is evidently a bug or bug-like, at any rate, since my alternate keyboard layouts in no way tampered with the mapping of the cursor control or arrow keys.
I imagine I can now safely re-enable my alternate keyboard layouts, but since I'm so rarely using them, I'm leaving well enough alone for now.
Here's where Google turned up this workaround: https://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/ … 3&forum=12
