As I guessed earlier, your ^ is a dead key. (Next time, please post any
error messages right away.)
Most likely you didn't want it to be a dead key in the first place. You
can fix that by selecting the eliminate-dead-keys keyboard layout
variant in Ubuntu.
However, in my clean install of Ubuntu, Emacs 22 handles dead keys just
fine. (That is, it ignores dead-circumflex.) Please verify that the
error occurs with emacs -Q, and please answer my earlier question on
whether you run emacs from the terminal.
