I thought that was really just a Windows function. Never seen it on a
Linux install. But using multiple keyboard layouts so far I can get
anything I've wanted to type.

Dear Vaguers--
I have lost the use of the combination Alt+four numbers to get special
characters. For example, Alt+0151 (on the keypad with NumLock on) to get an
em dash. Now when I do it, nothing happens. It's working on Windows with
Firefox, with OpenOffice, etc., but not on my two Ubuntu machines.
I think it was working until recently, but I'm new enough to Ubuntu that
I can't be certain.
Any ideas?
