Bug Description
Accessing remote destop via tsclient and a vncserver, all windows are minimized when pressing the "d" button.
Ubuntu release: Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010, both local and remote machines.
I expected to input a "d", and I got minimized instead.
Problem repeatable on different machines.

I'm using vnc4server + a windows VNC client with the same results. (I tried using a mac VNC client too... same thing)
So I suspect it's definitely something wacky with the keyboard mapping.
If I remember correctly, when I upgraded to 10.04 a similar issue happened... I had to add a line to my .vnc/xstartup file: DISABLE= 1
export XKL_XMODMAP_
I removed it after upgrading to 10.10 to get back to as "clean" of an install as I could, but no luck. Pressing the letter 'd' minimizes all windows on my desktop.
