Even though the upstream fix won't make it into an actual release for quite some time (since Gnome 2.22 is frozen), will this fix still make it into Hardy soon? I hope so. -- Blinking cursor can not be deactivated anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188732 You received this bug notification

This isn't a duplicate of bug 223060. That bug is about sending keys through to the remote session. This is about the fact that when you change keyboard shortcuts, they don't persist across sessions. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 223060 doesn't send some keys to the remote

I disagree for three reasons: 1) The GUI offers the option to be able to redefine keys. As long as the option is there, it's a bug for it to not work. 2) Redefining keys is a standard part of GTK (or Gnome--I'm not sure which). It's a handy feature that works everywhere else I've tried it. I

2008-05-22 Thread Scott Severance
Public bug reported: Vinagre uses F11 as the fullscreen shortcut. However, since F11 is a shortcut that I use frequently in my VNC sessions, I've remapped fullscreen to F8. Unfortunately, the change doesn't persist across sessions. ** Affects: vinagre (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided

Probably the best thing would be to use a popup like vncviewer; in vncviewer, hitting F8 pops up a menu with the various settings, including an option to send F8. Furthermore, F8 is vncviewer's *only* keyboard shortcut, AFAIK. A VNC client is a bit like a terminal app. Its job is to stay out of
