I would love to see the system monitor get implemented in some way into the ctrl-alt-delete. It is a very comfortable and familiar way to access the system manager when an application freezes and your mouse cursor is trapped. (aka full screen flash)
Having a keyboard shortcut to access the system monitor is just good all around planning. -- 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/890747 Title: Keyboard shortcut - Ctrl Alt Del doesn't do what most people typing it would expect Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Committed Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ubuntu 11.10 1. Type Ctrl+Alt+Del. What happens: In Unity, a mutant version of the Log Out dialog appears. What should happen: The nearest equivalent to the Windows Task Manager appears. Currently, that is the "Processes" tab of System Monitor. (Implementing this probably would invalidate bug 485740.)
