On my laptop with Ubuntu 8.10 and OpenOffice.org 3.1.0 it works
perfectly, and so does the compose key.
On my Eee PC 900 I have Ubuntu 9.04 and OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, and
neither Ctrl+Shift+u nor the compose key works. I don't know if this
can be of any kind of clue to anyone…

Well, I did some more experiments, and the reason for why it didn't
work on my Eee was that Num Lock was on, so the u key wasn't u
anymore, but 4, and Ctrl+Shift+4 doesn't mean anything particular, at
it seems…

Now I turned Num Lock off, and it works as expected, except that I get
different characters with my compose key on Ubuntu 9.04 than on my
Ubuntu 8.10 machine, for example Compose c o gives © and so does
Compose o c on Ubuntu 9.04. On Ubuntu 8.10 I get © and ǒ respecively,
but I guess that's another issue…
