I can switch between multiple workspaces using "ctrl+alt+left/right/up/down". But in VNC full screen mode, these keymaps no longer take effect but get captured by VNC itself, unless I give up the full screen mode using F8. Anyone knows how to switch to another workspace while still keep in VNC full screen mode? It is extremely useful to me. Thanks very much!

BTW, I searched some result for the similar topic with VirtualBox full screen mode, which is solved by typing right control first to give up control in VirtualBox. Unfortunately it doesn't take effect for VNC viewer...

Ubuntu 8.10 on ThinkPad X61S
xvnc4viewer
The VNC server runs on an old version Redhat with KDE.
