It's not a bug, it's a feature! If you want the standard tick mark, press the quote followed by a space. This is also very handy for making characters with accents. Just type the quote followed by the character: é á ź ć backwards accents can be formed with the quote left from the number one: à è Trema's with the double quote ä ë etc. You should be able to change this behaviour using System->preferences->keyboard but I don't know what option you should choose. Guess you have to experiment a bit. On the other hand, this feature is really handy if you get used to it. Maybe you should try it for a few weeks. yvan -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
