This could be a "dead key" problem; some keyboard layouts allow you to
compose accented characters by first typing ^,´, or `, followed by an
appropriate letter. While then it is easy to type something like ê, a
literal ^ can be typed by ^^ or ^[space].

Assuming Linux:
You could try some keymap option, like in the command
setxkbmap <your layout here> nodeadkeys

(e.g. for a German keyboard: setxkbmap de nodeadkeys)
(also possible by some GUI, check "Preferences", "Keyboard", "Layout")
