Fascinating, but confusing - in your case, the ISO-14755 standard works, while John Jason and I must add a «u» to our procedure ! Can this be because you are using Dapper, while we are using Feisty ? Sounds counter-intuitive to me, but one never knows. It would be interesting to about the experiences of other Ubuntu users....

What, for example, do you get on a > notepad in your Dapper distribution, Hagar, if you perform Ctrl + Shift > + U, > type 2190, and then hit the space bar ? In Feisty, I get ←, just as I do > when following the procedure in Gmail, as I have just done.... Same as you, it works fine for me everywhere except in OOo. NB: the CTRL+SHIFT+U does not work, I've to keep CTRL+SHIFT while typing the code but perhaps it's linked to the fact that I use a laptop without numpad. Hagar
