Hi, I've retitled the bug to reflect more closely what happens. Not only Alt-Tab is lost, any shortcut managed through the metacity entries can be affected by this.
Joel already explained what is happening and what the possible solutions are. It would be great to get some of the maintainers of these packages to chime in here. ** Summary changed: - Alt-Tab window switcher lost + Some metacity shortcuts get changed into lists and stop working -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/963125 Title: Some metacity shortcuts get changed into lists and stop working Status in Unity 2D: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gsettings-desktop-schemas” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity-2d” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Not sure whether this is unity-2d or something else. A recent update (in the last 2-3 days) caused my Alt-Tab switcher to disappear. The best I could to was to set the keyboard-shortcut for Alt-Tab to "Switch windows directly".
