I'm using the settings from the Debian-Installer, and all the standard keys are working flawlessly. The Internet/Media/ACPI keys don't do anything, but I haven't really tried to configure these at all.
My biggest beef is the placement of the "pipe" key (the one with "|" and "\" on it). My keyboard at work and my previous keyboard at home had the key above the "Enter" key (which was therefore only one row tall). Placing it to the right of the right-hand Shift key (above the right-hand Ctrl key) causes dissonence in my pinky finger's muscle memory.
While I expect that I'll eventually get used to it, I strongly suggest that the placement of this vital key become a primary selection criterion for all *nix developers. I wish someone had mentioned it to me before I spent my money.
