Cardy's (#38 above) solution works for me in Gutsy. I am observing the same behaviour as noted above: - Setting "Super is mapped to the Win-keys (default)" in Keyboard Preferences causes Keyboard Shortcuts to accept the Win-key as a modifier - The displayed result is "Mod4+Page_Down" or similar - In gconf-editor, the corresponding key in /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/ has a value of e.g. "<Mod4><Hyper>Page_Down" - The shortcut doesn't actually work.
Some additional things I've observed: - Manually changing the gconf key to "<Mod4>Page_Down" or "<Hyper>Page_Down" has no effect. - Trying the same process with "Hyper is mapped to the Win-Keys" set in Keyboard Preferences produces *identical* results (including the values of the gconf keys). - Setting "Press any of Win-keys to choose 3rd level" in Keyboard Preferences causes "Mod5+Key" to be recorded in Keyboard Shortcuts, with a matching "<Mod5>Key" visible via gconf-editor. However, the shortcut does not work. - The fix suggested by Cardy (manually entering <Win>Key in gconf-editor) works regardless of *any* settings concerning the Win-keys in Keyboard Preferences. I hope this extra information helps. -- Cannot use Windows key in keyboard shortcuts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12153 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
