This has to do with the circuitry on the keyboard itself.  Most keyboards don't like when you press too many keys in the same column because it cannot send all that information at once.  Computer beeps when I try to do similar things.  I would use mouse2 exclusively for jump if I were you, or move it over to your space bar and use ctrl for tossgren if I were you.

is your keyboard and/or mouse wireless?  i encountered this same problem when i borrowed someone's wireless mouse to test it out -- got a new corded mouse instead (same model/brand), and it no longer happens.

I had this problem when I changed keyboard too. But I think it had to do with sticky keys.

its not the sticky key issue i think since i doesnt even ask to turn them on or off.

it is a wireless. and i dont have the problem with my corded set so that has to be why.

flip,

I have huge issues with wireless keyboards doing that, especially when you try to use a wireless keyboard with a kvm that supports hot keys.  Just doesn't work.
