Any suggestions are still welcome

As Joost Kremers already wrote: it most probably will have to do with your laptop's keyboard!

In UNIX you can find the little editors nano and pico that accept a few of the simple GNU Emacs commands, particularly Ctrl + f/b/p/n. How do they work?

Do you have access to some remote system? Does it have GNU Emacs, nano, pico? How do these remote programmes behave?

If your answer is more often than once a "The same" then it's your laptop's keyboard ...
