Unfortunately, all the <ctrl>-letter keys I tried give "Function > key reserved for the system".

Is there some other way to set up shortcuts for use with > the slide-out keyboard? <ctrl>- does work for me as a shortcut. Make sure the action you assigned to is applicable in the context you activate it in (if you have a dialog open you cannot minimize the window etc). The shortcuts dialog does have some strange restrictions when assigning the keys, making it not that suitable for the N810 (it should however be possible to override the checks by using gconftool in xterm and manually setting the values in the /apps/osso/keybindings/ hierarchy). In the control panel you should however at least be able to use the following shortcuts on the N810: 3 key combos: <ctrl><shift><letter or number> <ctrl><fn><letter or number> 2 key combos: <fn><chr> <fn><backspace> <fn><enter> <ctrl>- <ctr>. <ctrl>, ...
