Public bug reported: I am running Ubuntu Jaunty, and have a very odd problem with gnome- terminal. In gnome-terminal, and only gnome-terminal, the lowercase e doesn't work. It had worked fine ever since I installed the Jaunty alpha on this machine and stopped working today. A reboot didn't cure it, and neither did changing the keyboard in System->Preferences->Keyboard.
Uppercase E works fine in gnome-terminal. In all other apps, e works fine. This seems similar to https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /gnome-terminal/+question/12115, but the remedy suggested there, to run bind e:self-insert, does not work for me. In fact, running bind -p shows that e is already bound to self-insert. I am not using xmodmap and I am not customizing X input in any other way. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 $ apt-cache policy gnome-terminal gnome-terminal: Installed: 2.26.0-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 2.26.0-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 2.26.0-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Gnome Terminal letter e doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370069 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
