Comment 113 for bug 221112

Hi,
Can someone (with a working setup) run 'xev' in a terminal and tell me what is the output when you press Ctrl+Space and when you press only space ?

I applied the fix successfully, but as I was messing around with the keyboard properties it doesn't work anymore, even with France (Autre) and the "insérer un espace insécable à tous les niveaux" fix.

Here is mine (commented) :
