I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 as a guest in VMWare. When I am using quotations marks in terminal, the first pressing of the key produces nothing, while the second one produces a double quotation mark looking like the ones from the keyboard, but different from the ones I already have in some text documents. What should I do?

This probably has to do with "Dead keys".
Go to Menu>System>Preferences>Keyboard click the tab labeled "layout" and try to add a different keybord layout (I have no clue if this helps for a Romanian keybord layout).
Alternatively, try to press space afterwards (instead of pressing the key twice).

It sounds like the terminal might be using start and end quotes instead of just quotation marks... Which is odd. And wrong. Why it's doing this, is beyond me, and I can't think of a solution other than copying and pasting.
