Yes, the box where the vnc server runs. I ran the client (tightvnc) on a Windows
box. I'll test it later with the client running Ubuntu as well.

What actually happens that the stickyness of keys gets activated at seemingly
random times (I'll test more to try to figure out what causes it), including
when you just minimise and restore the client vnc window. When Alt or Ctrl are
pressed down and you try to perform normal actions, the results are seemingly
unpredictable ...

If you add the sticky keys monitoring applet to the launcher area you can at
least see when keys have been made sticky, which does reduce the confusion.
