Can't change speed of ship

Feb 14, 2012 WideloaD link
I have just started this game and I can not change the speed of the ship, is this anything to do with the training missions or is this a bug?

The ship is constantly at 32Kps or whatever the units are... I can use the turbo and speed up and I can hold space down and break but the speed will always return to 32Kps. If I try to increase my speed with the "w" key the engins start to power up but always pull back to 32Kps - holding the key down causes the speed to fight between trying to speed up and trying to maintain 32Kps. Trying to slow down with the "s" key does the same thing but in the opposite direction.

I am using Kubuntu installed on top of Ubuntu 11.10
HP Pavilion Entertainment PC DV6-2113sa
Kernel version: 3.0.0-15-generic-pae

Anyone else found this problem?

If you have a joystick or gamepad hooked up, it might be using that for throttle control. If it auto-centers, it might do what you're describing.
