Hello and greetings to everyone in the group. Thank you for the ergoemacs team to sustain the effort in building this mode. I have a menu poping up in Ubuntu each time, or almost each, that is from UI (suppose it is a Gnome, not really familiar), this is not usually happens if I use M-x command, only if M-a in ergoemacs. Anyway around, I suppose to change keys, but perhaps I can save the keys and somehow disable this global UI popup. Thanks in advance.

Solved by toggling Emacs Input in Tweaks menu of Ubuntu.

Let me make it more clear, I was in a hassle while writing my previous
message, and for the sake of archive I try to rephrase what I meant.

If I enable ergoemacs-mode with it's standard US layout, if I try to
execute extended command through M-a keybinding I got external
Gnome/Unity (depends on the version of Ubuntu, the one I got now use
Gnome) got me to the 'alt' menu of OS, I was able to fix this solution
by enabling Emacs Bindings in Tweak menu, however it is also appears
that all of my UI bindings are ergoemacs ones now, or perhaps it is a
standard bindings and I just didn't notice that before. Like C-a
brings me to the beginning of the line in a webkit browser url field,
whilst before if I remember correctly it was 'select all', anyway I
think it is unlikely to be solved in any way if not by changing either
extended command shortcut or Unity/Gnome reaction to Alt/Meta
keypress.
