Dang. I just upgraded to -9 and got hit by the ctrl-key being locked down.

I re-started X11 and it cleared.

Isn't it sufficient to hit ctrl again and it clears?
Tried that; it didn't work for me.

What I found was this:

Start remote shell that starts X11:


#! /bin/sh [ "$1" = "" ] && { echo "Usage: $0 <host> [username]" exit 1 } SERVER=$1 ssh -n -X -l ${2:-barto} $SERVER xterm


Finish login and then resize the window before typing anything into it.


Bang - control key locked down.


Have you given xev a try? If not, it might be able to shed some light as to why the server thinks you have the key held down.
