Sebastien Upstream suggested it's an issue in xkeyboard-config _if_ the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc file provided didn't work. I have just tested the file that Sergey attached to the upstream and it works perfectly. I think it's reasonable to assume the problem is our xkeyboard-config

Sebastien I've just installed Karmic Alpha 5 under VirtualBox 3.0.4: it is even more broken. It recognises left Windows key + R as Alt + R (Alt + R comes up as Alt + R, too). It recognises right Windows key as ISO Level 3 Shift and won't accept a modifier. The XKB xprop settings are the same

As I understand it, the problem is that Nautilus doesn't show the default directory on FTP login, leaving the user to guess their path. The upstream fixed a problem whereby the user wouldn't be able to enter their path, once guessed... so I guess we've got a workaround. As the upstream (can't

I agree re removing this package or replacing it with another until this is fixed. It is insecure and I cannot see why many would use it without SSL. With SSL it's great, but if we have to repackage ourselves each time we install it may as well not be in the repository... -- IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS

I think the problem _is_ how the panel behaves when it is resized. Have a look at the first comments. There's a workaround with gconf which makes the panel's handling much more graceful, but this is analogous to Windows users having to edit the registry to be able to change resolutions nicely. It

Yes -- broken on Hardy, Intrepid and Jaunty. Changing Super is mapped to Win keys fixes it. Is this really an issue for GNOME now, rather than a default configuration issue with Ubuntu? I don't see how bug #1 will ever get fixed with this one open. It's nothing to do with unusual keyboards: it's
