OS: Ubuntu 12.10 upgraded from 12.04. Goal: use Ctrl+q instead of Alt+F4 to close any window (much easier to reach and often used)
Method 1: install dconf-editor, set org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/close to ['<Control>q'], successfully close windows with Ctrl+q, reboot system, the shortcut doesn't work anymore and the key is set to ['<Alt>F4'] Method 2: install ccsm, go to General Options -> Key bindings -> Close Window, Grab key combination (hit Ctrl+q), the binding is now set to <Primary>q and works, reboot system, the shortcut doesn't work anymore and the binding is set to <Alt>F4. For some reason, ~/.config/dconf/user gets changed after rebooting. Making this file read-only seems like a silly workaround, but it's what I'm inclined to do next. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1028299 Title: Key binding settings are lost and forgotten To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1028299/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
