[Vm-dev] Can't enter ^ on ubuntu with german keyboard

Hi!

On a german keyboard you can combine ^ and another character by pressing these keys one after the other like pressing ^ and then e to get ê. To just get the ^ character you can press the ^ key and then space. I think this also always worked for squeak. But if I try this now with a cog vm I get an unknown character and the outline of the ^ character changes to an up arrow (very strange). Now I have to switch the system keyboard layout back and forth to be able to enter ^ in Squeak. Have you seen this? What can I do about it?

Thanks,  Alex
