Hello,

Thank you for the reply,

My version of XMonad is 0.7-1~bpo40+1 (from
http://people.debian.org/~jps/etch ). My GNOME version is 2.14.

Trying to use your xmonad.hs I'm getting this error:

==================================================
Error detected while loading xmonad configuration
file: /home/shumkar/.xmonad/xmonad.hs

xmonad.hs:66:7:
	Could not find module `XMonad.Config.Gnome':
		It is not a module in the current program, or in any known package.

Please check the file for errors.
==================================================

About my xmonad.hs. I tried different ones. 

First, I used the recommended minimal xmonad.hs, according to the manual
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Using_xmonad_in_Gnome :

==================================================
import XMonad
import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops

main = xmonad defaultConfig
{ manageHook = manageDocks <+> manageHook defaultConfig
, logHook = ewmhDesktopsLogHook
, layoutHook = avoidStruts $ layoutHook defaultConfig
, modMask = mod4Mask
}
==================================================

Now I'm using another config.hs. I made it according to numerous
examples. And I have the same behaviour of XMonad using all config.hs,
and the same problem with letteral key bindings. Here is my current
config.hs:

import XMonad
import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops
import XMonad.Util.EZConfig
import XMonad.Util.CustomKeys

import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Hooks.UrgencyHook  
 
import qualified XMonad.StackSet as W
import qualified Data.Map        as M
 
main = xmonad $ defaultConfig
                { manageHook = manageDocks <+> manageHook defaultConfig
                , logHook    = ewmhDesktopsLogHook
                , layoutHook = ewmhDesktopsLayout $ avoidStruts
                                 $ layoutHook defaultConfig
                , modMask    = myModMask
                , keys       = \c -> myKeys `M.union` keys defaultConfig
c
                }

myModMask = mod4Mask

myKeys = M.fromList $
         [ ((myModMask, xK_Tab ), kill)
         ]
