Public bug reported: Background: These key bindings worked fine in 12.04beta1 from March 2nd until I updated on March 13th. Before March 2nd I was using gnome-shell, without compiz.
Steps: 1. Run unity --reset --replace 2. In keyboard control panel (or in the CCSM Desktop Wall page), change bindings for "move to desktop {left,right,up,down}" from Ctrl+Alt+{Left,Right,Up,Down} to Meta+{h,l,k,j}. 3. After switching desktops using the new keybindings, observe that the switcher stays open until I press Escape or I press and release Ctrl+Alt. Other thoughts: - I didn't have this problem last time I used Gnome 2 with compiz (about a year ago). - Meta+{Left,Right,Up,Down} have other bindings so I avoided testing these, I just tested Meta+Up and had the same problem. : kai@cactron log; ack-grep 'status installed compiz-plugins-main-default' dpkg* dpkg.log.1 25574:2012-03-02 11:50:33 status installed compiz-plugins-main-default 1:0.9.7.0~bzr19-0ubuntu5 49619:2012-03-13 10:14:35 status installed compiz-plugins-main-default 1:0.9.7.0~bzr19-0ubuntu6 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: compiz-plugins-main-default 1:0.9.7.0~bzr19-0ubuntu6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-19.30-generic 3.2.11 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-19-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Mar 19 15:58:03 2012 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100429) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SourcePackage: compiz-plugins-main UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-03-02 (17 days ago) ** Affects: compiz-plugins-main (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959803 Title: Desktop switcher does not hide when keybindings are changed from Ctrl+Alt+Arrow to Meta+[hjkl] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz-plugins-main/+bug/959803/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
