Hi David,

   Ya, I'd bet on the WM, as I get different keys stolen depending on which one I'm running on.  I get a similar effect in Mozilla under Gnome/SuSE9.3-10.0, but I never determined exactly what was interfering.

   Also, CTRL+SPACE is often used by an Input Method Editor (scim for example) to toggle the IME on and off.
