Multimedia keys, super key, printscreen key not working not even detected by xev !!!!
Tried different desktop environments of course it doesn't work in none of them !
I'm running openbsd snapshot

remap them with xmodmap
First, generate the current keycode map:
$ xmodmap -pke > .Xmodmap
To detect what the keycode is for specific key, use command:
$ xev -event keyboard

Add

usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysmodmap=/etc/X11/xinit/Xmodmap

if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi

if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $usermodmap
fi

to your ~/.xinitrc.

XF86 keysims are listed here

You've misconfigured your keyboard type/layout then.

rvp To be sincere i did nothing at all just the default installation !
How do i change my keyboard type/layout then ?

rvp You've misconfigured your keyboard type/layout then.

Not necessity, it depends on the window manager. I use frankenwm and xev works fine, franken does nothing for you.
But, if I take spectrwm, what I used to run before, the media keys are already mapped and xev returns no usefull information.

Now i'm on 6.8 stable everything works fine !
Also i found the iridium browser a chromium based browser very cool and fast !
online videos,games are fast as hell .
I would like to know if there is a degooglified chromium based browser

You're right about this, but, I assumed as OP was running XFCE, the multimedia keys should've had some (visible) effect.
