I played a little on this. Setting the shortcut to a different keycode/keybinding (e.g. Alt+F12) gnome-control-center (or maybe better gnome-settings-daemon) seems able to remember the value after logout/login and even after reboot.
Instead, setting the keycode/keybindint to Fn+2, I think you simple have to set again the value on login, i.e. your workaround script should be simply ---------------------------- #!/bin/sh gconftool-2 --set --type=string /desktop/gnome/keybindings/custom0/binding XF86AudioNext ---------------------------- Could be good perform more tests, using a "working" keycode on a custom shortcut. I'll try on m standard keybord in next days PS I've just opened a separate bug (#375656) for wrong keycode hitting Fn+2, following instructions provided here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting -- custom keyboard shortcut inactive on login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367097 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
