I'm using Linux Mint, today I have a very strange behavior of my terminal. When I type "space" in the keyboard, it opens automatically the page http://www.linuxmint.com/documentation.php and then I can't do anything with my terminal. How could it be possible and how to fix it? Thanks

Can you please give some more details? Can you reproduce that behavior? How exactly? The terminal opens a browser? After you close that browser, you can work normally with your terminal? – michas Jan 19 at 21:43
I've found the problem, it's because the F1 is mapped with the space key, I've changed the keyboard layout and it works again – HOAI NAM NGUYEN Jan 21 at 9:03
@HOAINAMNGUYEN, it would be nice if you answered your own question with your solution. – vonbrand Jan 24 at 16:21

I've found the problem. It's because F1 is mapped with the Space key, I've changed the keyboard layout (this is a French keyboard layout) and it works again.
