           Summary: control-k sends control-t
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-terminal
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com

In gnome-terminal, I'm used to pressing control-t to open a new tab.

I'm also used to using control-k when editing bash command lines.  control-k is
supposed to delete from the cursor to the end of the current line.

At the moment, however, both control-t and control-k are creating new tabs. 
This is very frustrating when trying to edit bash command lines!

I think the problem first started when I added the UK Dvorak layout to my
keyboard preferences.  Note that qwerty's 'k' key is dvorak's 't' key.

I don't use the dvorak layout - I just have it as one of the options in my list
of layouts in the keyboard preferences.  The 'k' key sends a 'k' as it should,
but when I hold the control key and press 'k' it seems to send a control-t
instead of a control-k.

This problem doesn't show up in firefox 1.0.7 from the breezy repository, nor in
firefox 1.50b1 from mozilla.org.  It *does* show up in galeon from the breezy
repository, so I guess this isn't a gnome-terminal bug.  I don't know which
package to file it against though.
