Keyboard broken in NX

[Ben McCann]

The keyboard is totally messed up when I NX into my Lucid desktop from my Lucid laptop. When I hit the up arrow it takes a screenshot.

Instructions for installing NX available here: http://www.benmccann.com/dev-blog/my-first-experience-with-ubuntu/

I don't think its the same bug.

With all due respect. I don't think this is the same error at all. FreeNX-team have developed the NX package a lot since intrepid. Please use the ppa from the Free-NX team (ppa:freenx-team/ppa) and if the problem persists report start the process of debugging with the NX team.

This may well be a different bug than the Intrepid/FreeNX bug, but I would be surprised if the bug is in NX. I have not had this problem on any OS except Ubuntu. Also, when searching for a solution, I came across numerous posts regarding the up key being remapped to PrintScreen in Ubuntu.

It seems this is the worst when using a shadow session. I cannot figure out how to resolve the problem in that case. However, I have somehow worked around the problem for the standard case.
