The left "windows" key is not set as Super_L but as a Mod4 modifier key.
Thus in keyboard shortcuts I cannot use it on its own, only in key combination. (e.g. Mod4 + M) result of command xmodmap: shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock control Control_L (0x25), Control_L (0x42), Control_R (0x69) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x6c), Meta_L (0xcd) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Super_L (0x85), Super_R (0x86), Super_L (0xce), Hyper_L (0xcf) mod5 ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c), Mode_switch (0xcb) result of command xev for the key: FocusOut event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001, mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor FocusIn event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor KeymapNotify event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 This is gnome specific and not anything to do with system keyboard or X server. The key works fine in a xfce session. This used to work in Lenny's gnome version. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
