Public bug reported:
To switch workspaces I have shortcuts CTRL-1, CTRL-2, CTRL-3, etc. This
used to work fine until recently.
But now CTRL-1 gives "1" (ASCII 0x31), and CTRL-3 gives 0x1B (ASCII
<ESC>), CTRL-4 gives 0x1C, ... CTRL-8 gives 0x7F.
Here is how you can show the problem.
* open a gnome-terminal on workspace 1
* type CTRL-1 (we're already on workspace 1, so there is no switch)
* see character "1" being inserted
* open a gnome-terminal on workspace 8
* type a few random characters
* type CTRL-8 (we're already on workspace 8, so there is no switch)
* see how characters are deleted
Of course you can use xev too to see what XLookupString makes of the key
presses. For completeness this is what I see:
CTRL-1 => 0x31
CTRL-2 => 0x00
CTRL-3 => 0x1B
CTRL-4 => 0x1C
CTRL-5 => 0x1D
CTRL-6 => 0x1E
CTRL-7 => 0x1F
CTRL-8 => 0x7F
CTRL-9 => 0x39
CTRL-0 => 0x30
I doesn't matter what kind of keyboard is used. (Note that I have a mac
keyboard, but I have tried a regular PC keyboard too.) I've created a
new user account to eliminate possible mess up of some user setting.
