keyboard problem after F12 upgrade

Upgrade didn't go exactly as planned and I have it mostly cleaned up but
one thing is driving me crazy now, it's the keyboard.

When I press the down arrow on the keyboard, it sends a <Return> and
puts me on a new line whether I am in Konsole, or Evolution or ? but not
in a a virtual console <Control><Alt><F2>. Changed user...same problem.
Changed to GNOME...same problem.

Reinstalled (via yum reinstall ...)
xorg-x11-xkb-utils
xorg-x11-drv-keyboard
xorg-x11-utils
bash
xkeyboard-config

xev reports...

down arrow...

up arrow (which doesn't flip through history in Konsole :-)

KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,

state 0x0, keycode 98 (keysym 0xff26, Katakana), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,
root 0x122, subw 0x0, time 7391940, (-395,37), root:(703,841),
state 0x0, keycode 98 (keysym 0xff26, Katakana), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False

How can I fix?

I also note that I am not receiving e-mail from the list and have
appealed to RH admins to track the bounces for me to no avail but I will
monitor the archive for possible solutions if they aren't mailed
directly to me.

Thanks

Craig
