Is that a notebook or a desktop? I remember, that I had to deactivate the
<fn> key on one of our notebooks a while ago, cause by default the
<fn> key was locked.

If this is not the case, did you check
 Settings Manager->Window Manager->Keyboard
and
 Settings Manager->Keyboard->Application Shortcuts ?

I'm trying this here on my openSUSE PC, don't know Gentoo unfortunately.
