Public bug reported:

F8 to F12 strokes will not pop up GUI in ubuntu 12.04.
In Gnome, F10 open the "file" menu of the terminal by default.
In KDE (or after reconfiguring gnome), F6 to F12 prints a "~" symbol.

This is not specific to yade: Midnight Commander, aptitude, and other
terminal applications suffer from this. It's a gnome "bug" it seems.
I've been trying to configure my system to not capture these keys but no
success.

The best solution may be to change the hotkeys in yade. Or did somebody
find a fix for this annoying behaviour?
