Gnome system monitor can not set a shortcut to start itself, a system keyboard shortcut has to be assigned to start gnome-system-monitor in order to achieve this, thus I am moving this to the gnome-settings- daemon project, as that one should be handling system keyboard shortcuts (at least that's what related bug #890747 is assigned to).

He has been using Windows since around 1996, and so is used to using the Control + Shift + Escape keybinding to show the (system monitor / process list) in Windows. In Ubuntu, there is no such keybinding by default. For us experienced Linux users, it's probably not a big deal, but for someone coming from Windows after using it for a number of years, it could be an issue. This was tested in 12.10 / Quantal Quetzal. I am pretty sure the same applies to 11.10 and 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1082994/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
