** Description changed: + WORKAROUND 1: + Run CCSM and under "Ubuntu Unity Plugin" change the key binding for "Key to show the launcher" to something else (e.g. Super+U). Then log out and in again. As long as no compiz plugin is bound to the single Super key any more, compiz will no longer block other apps from binding to Super+other_keys. + + WORKAROUND 2: + 1. Write a script or figure out the command to do the action you want. + 2. Run ccsm. + 3. Enable the "Commands" plugin + 4. In the Commands settings, fill in the command line you want and bind it to key Super+P. + Now Unity will run your specified command on Super+P, but still handle the Super key as usual. + + ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Using : 12.04 Beta 1, updated. and Unity. In 11.10 clicking: - the function key (Fn) + (F1) allowed to switch between the laptop screen and the external monitor. After upgrading to 12.04 this no more works and instead I get an unexpected behavior: see the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vEnrV5TwXo System: Dell XPS 15 L502X ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: ubuntu-sso-client 2.99.90-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-18.28-generic 3.2.9 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Mar 8 19:18:42 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: ubuntu-sso-client UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-03-02 (6 days ago)
