You've mentioned at http://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/26715/5296
I solved this myself by switching off the option of Show position of
pointer when the Control key is pressed in Linux mouse setting. I
guess there is some conflict between Emacs and this option.
so it seems some OS feature might be modifying the keystrokes that Emacs
sees. Can you show the contents <f1> l (view-lossage) after you've hit
C-g with this option on?
