Thank you for that tip - it works better now, but I still cannot walk through the world of edge panels freely.
After experimenting quite a lot, I come to the conclusion that the problem might lie within the so-called "Indicator Applets", which seem to be new to the new ubuntu. Let me try to describe what I do - although it's a little hard to describe that:
- I start gnome with sue starting automatically
- I press alt-F1 to open the menu, the one with the three tabs "Applications", "Locations", and "System"
- I close the menu with Escape
- I press alt-control-tab to go to the Desktop - it works for this one time
- I press alt-control-tab again to go to the expanded upper edge panel - this works also
- Now, I tab through the elements of the upper edge panel. It begins with the menu, the one I opened before with alt-F1. Then I have some important icons like "Firefox", "Network Manager", "Ubuntu Help", then I come to the Indicator Applets. I take the second one, called "Indicator Applet Session". Well, it looks to me like a kind of tree view - I may open branches with the right arrow, and I may go down within a branch with the down arrow, perhaps I even may close a branch with the left arrow, but I may never leave this Indicator applet again - it seems "absorbing" to me. In particular, I cannot go back to the Desktop with alt-control-tab, and also my beloved alt-F1 to access the Aplicatins menu doesn't work anymore.
It seems to me that this is not a sue problem, rather, I suspect that either I miss an important keystroke here, or that some system setting prevents me from haveing a clean keyboard interface here.
Any response would be mostly welcome.
With kindest regards,
Bernhard
