Well, you need to tell your terminal emulator to pass C-SPC to the
application.  Obviously, how to do this depends on which program you
are using...

That means your terminal emulator sends the expected code for C-@ but sends nothing for C-SPC.

It's a terminal emulator problem -- it's not sending anything when you 
type Ctrl-space.  If Emacs doesn't see a keystroke, it can hardly be 
expected to process it.

That means your terminal emulator sends the expected code for C-@ but sends 
nothing for C-SPC.

Thanks a lot.

I run windows and use putty or Xwindows to connect to a linux machine. My PC is dell. I tried linux(debian/redhat) and sun OS. None of them works.  

ctrl-@ works. ctrl-h k ctrl-space shows nothing.



It is strange.

I don't know what is Xwindows, but I work with PuTTY every day,
logging into both Solaris and Debian GNU/Linux machines, and
Ctrl-SPACE does work for me in both cases.

Did you change the keyboard settings in any way?  I think the default
configuration should just work.

Hi:



I find that ctrl-space (mark set) does not work on my computer. The key board is good. What is the problem?



Thanks a lot

What do you get when you do "C-h k C-SPACE"?
