Public bug reported:

remote VNC server: Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit desktop using Unity
local VNC client: Ubuntu 10.04.2 64-bit desktop

Server is running a remote desktop using tightvncserver. Client is
viewing the desktop using vinagre. Whenever the client presses the 'd'
key all remote desktop display windows minimize. This makes remote admin
impossible because the sudo command can never be used.

Work-around: on the server, disable the default Keyboard Shortcut that
sets 'D' for minimizing/maximizing all windows.

I gather that when using remote desktop the server should not interpret
all 'd' key presses as shortcuts.

I have also reproduced this on Natty in VirtualBox, using its own
vinagre to view its own localhost:1 tightvncserver.
