Hmm, we don't see this. Do you have some odd custom theme? What happens if you move any keythemerc file from .themes ? (and send us a copy if you find one which breaks it). What happens if you run xfce-settings-show and look at the window manager key settings? Can you tell us what's there and try choosing the default keytheme? Are you running any other apps which might be grabbing keys? Do you have any errors in .xsession-errors? Let us know.

Hmm, we don't see this. Do you have some odd custom theme? What happens if you move any keythemerc file from .themes ? (and send us a copy if you find one which breaks it). I've been using xfce (and xfce4) for many years. Perhaps something in an old configuration is causing this? I'll try removing all config and see what happens. What happens if you run xfce-settings-show and look at the window manager key settings? Can you tell us what's there and try choosing the default keytheme? Strangely xfce-settings-show is not found. I can run the settings dialog from the root menu. The Default keybindings is the only one that is shown. If I try to create a new one, the directory appears in .themes but the keybinding won't change. It always reverts to what's in Default. Are you running any other apps which might be grabbing keys? Do you have any errors in .xsession-errors? The strangest thing in .xsession-errors is: Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate loadable module in module_path: libxfce.so, especially considering: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ locate libxfce.so /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/engines/libxfce.so Let us know. Simon. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

No, that's cos I misspelt it *sigh* It's xfce-setting-show but not important now. I'm surprised you can't create a new theme though.

Yes, we'd love to see a tar of the old settings so we can try to break it ourselves and report it upstream.
