I'd guess it's gnome-terminal eating the keystrokes. Try the following
experiment (on a shell on a Gnome terminal, that is :)

  hexdump -C

Then type away at it. You should see a hexdump of your input. Then type
CTRL-Home. Does hexdump "see" it?

Now go to the terminal's menu "Edit->Keyboard Shortcuts". On mine theere
is a "Disable all menu access keys". This one fixed it for me.
