Right, as I suspected. I'm in the process of working around this in Do by actually reporting an error when binding the keys fail, so at least users have some idea of why things aren't working. We might want some documentation that clearly states that all s are belong to Unity. -- You received t

raof, yes Unity does cause Compiz to add passive grabs on Super+AnyKey (on the root window I think). Whenever a plugin requests to bind to a single modifier key, Compiz has to also bind to modifier+everything_else so as to be able to distinguish between the modifier being tapped (for the plugin) or

Daniel: is it possible that you've got a grab on or somesuch? GNOME Do *can* receive + events (as your xev test shows), but attempting to add a grab on that combination fails (that's what the libdo-WARNING is about), which would be the case if Unity were grabbing the keys already. -- You receive

What I am observing still is thus: Background: Windows is running in VirtualBox, running in a Unity session. The VirtualBox keyboard lock is active. If I tap the Super key, the Windows start menu and the Dash Home open. (Bad: Dash Home shouldn't open.) If I hold the Super key for half a second a

@Daniel: I agree. Over the past few days, I've noticed that gnome-do can successfully use super+space as a key binding, but that whenever I restart it, it loses the binding and I have to reassign it. Sorry for the noise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz pac

The same thing for me. Super+L combination does not lock the screen after upgrade to 12.04. Any combination without Super (e.g. Ctrl-Alt-L) works fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchp

Personally, I just didn't like Unity using Super as a standalone button. (In the words of Alton Brown, "It's a uni-tasker!") I made Alt-F1 open the launcher, and disabled keyboard focus to the dash.
