Bug Description
Binary package hint: indicator-applet
When logging into a session user NX or VNC, whenever I press the S key (without modifiers), the logout menu is opened. When I press M, the messaging menu is opened.
Other programs in the NX/VNC session don't have this problem. When I remove the indicator applets from the panel, the M and S keys work OK.
Tested using the NX client for Mac OS X and Jolly's Fast VNC. The Windows client of NX doesn't have the problem.
xkeycaps shows the following info:
* Mac OS NX client: pressing M key gives keycode "C 0x36 54 066" and KeySym "m M mu U02DC".
* Windows NX client: pressing M key gives keycode "M 0x3A 58 072" and KeySym "m M mu masculine mu masculine".

When I open Keyboard Shortcuts, and press S or M when assigning a shortcut to an action, the following message appears:
The shortcut "S" cannot be used because it will become impossible to type using this key.
Please try with a key such as Control, Alt or Shift at the same time.
So Gnome at least sees the key presses correctly, without any modifiers. Furthermore, the indicator applet doesn't open when I try to assign the shortcut.
