Subject: Strange behaveur for M-x

Message-ID: <d2bi1m$vr9$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
Hello all.
This shouldn't be a bug but I can't find a workaround for this strange behaver.
If I press M-x, instead of the minibuffer taking focus, emacs produces a beep.
I can't invoke any command except for those which a key binding exists.
The key bindings which like M-a, M-e produce a beep also.
uname -a:
Linux anakreon 2.4.27-2-386 #1 Thu Jan 20 10:55:08 JST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
This is a "Debian testing" distribution.
Emacs version: GNU Emacs 21.4.1
If emacs is used outside the X environment, M-x works fine.
A guess is that M-x is never sent to emacs but the xev program produces
the output bellow for M-x
KeyPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x800001,
root 0x3a, subw 0x0, time 6331689, (166,-16), root:(172,11),
state 0x0, keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""

Any idea what's going on?
