[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
This worked for me in Ubuntu 9.10... Go to System Preferences CompizConfig Settings Manager... in the General Options keep the GNOME compatibility checked but also check KDE Compatibility after that Alt+F2 worked for me... i got the run command window... I hope this works...

[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
none of these workarounds worked for me either (Kubuntu Jaunty), but then I did the following: 1) in confizconfig settings manager, keep gnome compatibility enabled, but change the two keybindings to something unused in KDE (I chose altsuperF6 and altF6). 2) In System Settings Global Keyboard Shortcuts Run Command Interface, verify that altF1 and altF2 still map correctly. 3) Log out, and log back in. Now both altF1 and altF2 work as they did before I installed Confiz. hope something works for you! -- Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
Ack. Same here on Ubuntu 8.10 using gdm and compiz. I open System -- Preferences -- CompizConfig Settings Manager and SEE under General Options -- keybindings that Alt+F2 is supposed to launch the Run Dialog. But it doesn't. Workaround provided by thisperishedmin (and others) worked for me. Yay, I have a run dialog back, bound to the familiar Alt+F2 key combination (which I use many times per day)! Please fix this so that I don't have to (remember ) apply this workaround to all the systems that I use. -- Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
I just wanted to say that I ran into the same problem using KDE4.1 as you KDE3 users are describing. Thankfully, the solution is much the same as above work arounds. I opened ccsm and went to the general options key bindings and set run dialog to alt+f6 (it seems to be otherwise unused). I then opened the commands tab (again, in CCSM general options commands) and set command line 0 to simply krunner. Then, under key bindings put run command 0 to alt+f2. This has allowed me to access the oh so loveable run dialog with Compiz running on KDE4. I realize this is for KDE3 users, but it seems like the problem still exists in KDE4 to some extent. As you see, its basically the same to everything about but instead of using dcop kdesktop KDesktopIface popupExecuteCommand you are simply using krunner.

[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
I tried every workaround listed on this bug, sadly none of them worked. Finally I found that the problem raises when I put in ~/.profile the export KDEWM=/usr/bin/compiz line, used to start compiz emerald from the start without loading KWin. If I comment out that export line and let KWin start, then later replacing it by starting Compiz, Alt+F2 will work fine. very strange bug, I just wish there was a formal way to avoid loading KWin so there were not need to kill it after with Compiz. -- Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is still a problem. I installed Kubuntu, and quickly nearly became frustrated enough to uninstall it (I didn't).

I think it has something to do with the KDE Configuration Backend. The following worked for me... * In ccsm go to Preferences - Backend and enable Flat-file Configuration. You will have to reset your compiz preferences after this. * Still in ccsm go to general options and key bindings and disable the ALT-F2 binding. * Open KDE system settings - Keyboard Mouse - Keyboard Shortcuts and insure that the Run Command is binded to ALT-F2 * Log out and back in -- Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
Fully confirm the bug - Compiz disables a lot of other KDE shortcuts too, such as Alt+F3, Alt+F5 etc. The workaround worked fine for me - I set Run Dialog in Compiz to Alt+F6 (which isn't used in KDE afaik). Then (still in Compiz) I set Command 0 to the above dcop command, and Run Command 0 to Alt+F2.

[Bug 219163] Re: Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3
Full ACK. I searched for a solution of this bug, too and found a possible workaround: Change the keybinding of Run dialog in General Options-tab of compiz settings manager to something else than AltF2. Don't disable it! After that, the assigned AltF2 keybinding will work for the user-defined command (dcop kdesktop KDesktopIface popupExecuteCommand). Hope this helps. @Paulus: I know the behaviour, you decribed, too.

I think you will find that the window is opened, though it starts in the background. So if you use Alt-Tab a couple of times, you'll see it. I confirm this bug, and would like to see it fixed.
