Nice ;-)

Might be your window manager is stealing these key combos? I nad to
wrangle the left logo key from my window manager. Emacs sees it as
"Super" (as in your case) and pressing this key plus n gives "s-n is
undefined" (this is a fairly recent Emacs -- GNU Emacs 23.1.91.1
(i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.12) -- so I would expect that key
combo to be undefined on yours as well).

Anyway: what happens if you first type CTRL-h k, then SUPER-n
(CTRL-h k is "describe key"). If the same "strange things" happen, I'd
venture it's not Emacs's deed. Emacs would describe the bindings it has
for this key.
