I think the problem is GNOME, not VNC or vino. I am connecting from a Mac Powerbook G4 using Chicken of the VNC 2.0b4, to a freshly upgraded x86 Ubuntu" 7.04 running tightvnc server 1.2.9-21. When I launch programs from X, I have no trouble typing. However, when I run gnome-session, the key mappings become jumbled. Typing "asdfghjkl;'<ENTER>" is translated to GNOME as "abfhjk;'`io<SPACE>".

Mouse and cursor behavior seem normal.

The problem occurs irrespective of whether GNOME is launched from or independently of the x-window-manager.

The thread, page-linked in the originating bug description, includes a posting from a user who claims that the problem does not occur when KDE is launched.
