@James, Bug 950160 and bug 741869 are different.
Bug 950160 has affected 3 projects now. It is quite confusing to follow since many bugs in different components are involved. Keng-Yu's g-s-d patch only fixes the issue in Unity 2D and Gnome shell. It has nothing to do with Unity 3D. Unity3D/Compiz has a design issue which also contributes to this bug. They should not prevent g-s-d from receiving the Super key event. Please note that workaround #2 as mentioned in the description of this bug does not work reliable on many machines. bug 741869 targets Compiz. It is the main cause why Super+p does not work in Unity 3D. Comment #7 in bug 741869 points out a possible direction how to fix it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950160 Title: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/950160/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
