I seem to remember that you have to press F1 to get the keys in the
mode you need them. I _think_ there are 3 states - pressing F1 once
puts you in straight letter entry, F1 again puts you into a state a
can't remember and F1 again puts you into text + some functions (such
as "i" = popup as you state above).

Have a look through the archives for F1 mythbrowser. Sorry in advance
if that's the wrong key!
