Hey,
I tried to duplicate the same behaviour on my system, but couldn't get
it to mess up (I usually use an rxvt or xterm). You might check the
value of the TERM environment variable (type 'echo $TERM' at the
prompt), and the keyboard settings in the "Settings" menu.
I would think that the value of the TERM variable should match what
you have set under the keyboard settings. That's just a guess,
though.
HTH,
Ben
