I too experience this problem daily as I use Remmina to access multiple
(2-4) virtual machines running Win7 or Server 2008.

It seems related to 12.04 release.  Synaptic reports I have 1.0.0.1
installed (but the Help > About in Remmina reports 0.9.99.1 from 2010
(though the about box may be out of date - I hope).

The jumping from one monitor to another is very reproduceable for me:
1) Start Remmina
2) Launch connection full screen (double-click on connection in Remmina 
window), it appears on right-hand (2nd) monitor in full screen (good)
3) Click in connection window.  (Everything seems normal - can interact with it 
and work fine)
4) Click outside connection window (click back into Ubuntu on left-hand (1st) 
monitor - often to start another connection to another machine, clicking on 
Remmina
5) Click back inside the connection window and it very often causes it to jump 
to the next workspace (upper right of the four).

Also, if I open multiple connections and, when focused on one I hit Alt-` to 
cycle between them, when releasing the Alt-` key to select a window, it almost 
always causes one or another of the open connection windows to jump to the 
upper-right workspace.   
Repeated use of the Alt-` routine eventually has all the connection windows 
over in the upper-right workspace.  (I thought they were disconnecting for a 
while but eventually figured out they were just jumping workspaces.

Though I'm not sure they are really there on that other workspace.  If I
use Expo mode (Super-S), I see them in the upper-right workspace, but
when I double-click on that workspace, it enlarges but the connection
windows aren't there.  They're back on the upper-left workspace - so
either they're *real* jumpy, or they aren't really moved.  Strange.

If I start with them on the upper-right and do the same procedures, they
move back to upper-left workspace (so it's not like I can just stay in
the upper-right workspace to work).


I also experience the 'stuck key' problem - I *thought* it was the Control key 
that was getting stuck, but it could also be the Super/Win key.

I would *like* to get some stdout/stderr logs but when I run remmina
from the command-line I get no output at all, even redirecting
stdout/stderr.  Strange.  If I use Remmina's debug window I get a few
messages about keystrokes (and only a couple of those) and nothing about
errors.   The man page is extremely uninformative as well.

Any suggestions on how to see stdout/stderr with this (do I need a debug
build)?  Or how do I enable logging and where do the log files go (if it
exists)?  Haven't seen any type of logging capability (other than the
bug about remmina filling up the .xsession-errors log file).
