Is this still the case for newer releases?
Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2012-02-10 02:13:24 UTC 
Probably one needs to switch to English layout to input control characters?
Or is this a regression?

Any updates? please try on the latest release to check if this still persists.

This bug was filed against Fedora 14 which is now EOL. Please re-open this bug if you still experience this issue with one of the currently suppported versions of Fedora. Don't forget to update the version field if you do so.
