Change your keyboard shortcut scheme. It's in kcontrol, regional and accessability, keyboard shortcuts. Change the current scheme to KDE Default for 4 modifier keys... -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBTzwfUzgNqloQMwcRAjzdAJ9BAT9a+scfCmpdU0aDaiijDXKRjgCgu2Sh Tpa9eICUvAZhVQRKnqfHCeM= =WDDV -END PGP SIGNATURE-

Thank you. Some playing with Alt/Win settings at Control Center -> Regional & Accessibility -> Keyboard Layout really fixes this (either manual execution of displayed command or KDE restart is needed for changes to take place).
Re: "Win" key in KDE
I get rid of it by hitting the "Num Lock" key, so that the "Num Lock"-LED is on and i can type numbers. The Win-key is now just the meta-key for me, no K-Menu any longer. Doesn't work on Laptop-keyboards ;-) jörg p.s.: don't know why there is a connection between the "Num Lock" and this problem, but there is, for me at least. sid,kde3.3.0 On Monday, 20.

My setup[2] does not exhibit the issue you describe; the Win key acts only as a modifier. You may be able to work around this by going into the Keyboard Shortcuts CC module and changing the Panel -> Popup Launch Menu shortcut(s).

There isn't a NatMM layout shipped with X, so I'm using the similar Natural Pro layout.
