Wow! You just opened me to a whole new world of possibilities in advanced 
window management I didn't suspect existed. No luck though as disabling kde 
shortcuts didn't change a thing. With both konsole shortcuts and kde shortcuts 
out of the way the problem is still here.

I don't really what to do to check is the keyboard,a fr_CH qwertz btw, is 
correctly set up. I looked up konsole settings and found a section about 
keybindings set on default (xfree4), I tried the other option "linux console" 
but it didn't fix my problem, and I found encoding is set to utf-8.
