Icedove locking up desktop in Squeeze
 
Hello,
I cannot seem to find the keyboard commands to unlock the desktop in Debian Squeeze.

What happens, is that when I try to open attachments in Icedove, without fail, the whole desktop locks up. I cannot access the terminal, as the mouse is frozen. In older versions, I used to use Ctrl Alt Backspace, on the keyboard and simply restart the desktop, but that command has no effect when using Squeeze apparently.

I am running the amd 64 bit version if that helps at all.

Thanks.

This should restore the former behavior. It is from arch, but it should work on Debian.
