I still had this bug on 13.04 with FreeNX ppa package connecting to the 13.04 server from a 12.04 client. The only solution (no specific setkbmap or xmodmap line worked [even matching what I got in 'xev' !], I could not find evdev in keyboard options [despite it in kernel and xorg.conf.d], and no gconf/dconf unset worked either) that succeeded for me was
on client: xmodmap -pke > localxmodmap (transfer localxmodmap to server) on server: xmodmap localxmodmap I post on this "resolved" bug (many forums list 12.10 users struggling) only to help others.
