What I did on my Debian Lenny box was to go into the System menu ->
Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts.  Once in there, I went down the
list of items and gnome-terminal was there.  I then hit space on the
"Disabled" entry and put in my key; I used Ctrl-Alt-t.  That worked
for me.  I don't know how entries get added into this list though.
Nor do I know how they find those odd ball keys like media keys.  It
just so happened that some of the media keys work for my keyboard to
control the Totem Movie player and I can launch e-mail and web browser
from some other media keys; pretty cool actually.
