Hi,

I am not sure If anybody has faced this issue, my keyboard is less responsive when pressing the double quote/single quote key, I have to press it twice for it to print the quote( and that too it prints some other data and not exactly a double-quotes). Initially I thought it was issue with my keyboard, but later I see that it is working fine in Windows XP. It looks some kind of setting issue. If you check the below two examples, example a) is the double quote printed in Ubuntu, it doesn´t exactly looks like a double-quotes and b) is the one printed in Windows.

a) ¨J

b) “J


Any idea what I am missing?

I am using 11.04

Thank You

Is your keyboard set to USA?

I know if you set to USA International (or other variants) the keys may have alternative functions. An example would be using ' to add an accent onto other letters.
