I confirm this with Ubuntu 14.04.2 with XFCE provided by the xubuntu package: I delete .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4 -keyboard-shortcuts.xml, log in and set the shortcut; it works. Then if I log out and back in again it doesn't work, despite the shortcut definition being shown by the applet, by xfconf-query and by inspecting the xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml file.
I've tried saving the xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml when the shortcut works, and copying it back in again after the logout/login sequence (when it's stopped working) and it makes no difference; it doesn't look like the problem lies in the shortcuts file itself. I'd love to contribute to fixing this but I haven't the skill; it's really disruptive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Xubuntu Developers, which is subscribed to a duplicate bug report (992579). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292290 Title: [SRU] Window manager keybindings don't work after reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1292290/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev Post to : xubuntu-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
