[TxMt] Control + Escape doesn't work

[Thomas Krajacic]

I recently recognized, that the control + escape shortcut to envoke  
the gear menu doesn't work. Now I searched the archives, and found  
that this question has come up before.
The only answer was, that it could be that the keyboard shortcut is  
already assigned in the system-preferences.

Looked there, and it sure isn't.

I even created a new user and tried there, but even there it doesn't  
work. Is this a known bug? Or am I just missing something?

running latest Leopard.

Thanks,
Thomas
