As far as I understand, Default.sample is what it says, just a sample. It could be that Linux mint felicia uses this out-of-the-box. Sorry to hear you can't link the key to the terminal, don't know what could be the trouble there, can't help you there. And sorry for the late reply, my hoster are changing hardware where my website runs on and there are some problems with mail. Thanks for the comment Nano.

I had one problem though. When entering 'sudo cp Default.sample Default' I got that the Default.sample does not exist. I edited the file Default instead and it worked. Well, sort of. I can set the think button to open e.g. help browser, but not open a terminal. But... I can open a terminal with a different key combination. Btw, I have Linux mint felicia (similar to Ubuntu 8.10 as I understand) and a T61. I don't expect you to solve this but I wanted to comment.
