Public bug reported:
Prior to Precise 12.04, you could use the Super key in shortcuts, for
example Ctrl-Super-M.
However, with 12.04, if you set a shortcut with Super, it simply does
not work. There is no error message; it just doesn't do anything.
To duplicate:
First, ensure that zenity is installed (it should be, by default).
Second, create the shortcut:
1. System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts
2. Press "+".
3. Name: Test
4. Command: zenity --info --title='Test' --text='Testing shortcuts'
5. Apply.
6. Click on "Disabled".
7. Press Ctrl-Alt-M
Third, test it:
1. Press Ctrl-Alt-M
2. A dialogue displays.
3. Close the dialogue.
Fourth, use the Super key:
1. Click where it says "Ctrl-Alt-M"
2. Press Ctrl-Super-M
Fifth, test it again:
1. Press Ctrl-Super-M
2. Nothing happens.
What should happen: A dialogue displays.
