Public bug reported: I believe if the box in Preferences->Mouse->General has the box checked to "show position of pointer", the <CTRL> key is absorbed, and not passed through for further processing. Some apps need to see this CTRL function when you are NOT looking for the pointer position.. Ubuntu 9.10 All current updates Acer 5570Z //Don Manyete
