Last night I installed the openarena package on Ubuntu and at first, the gameplay totally sucked because it seemed like I couldn't use the mouse and the keyboard at the same time. Then it occurred to me that it was probably because I was using a touchpad...the game couldn't be this popular if the mouse sucked.
Anyway, if you're experiencing any sort of keyboard/touchpad problems while playing a game on Ubuntu, go to Preferences>Mouse and then to the Touchpad tab. Uncheck "Disable touchpad while typing". This same problem probably affects all OSes, but that's how you'd fix it on Ubuntu.
