Can't use suggested workarounds (or I don't fully understand them). If it were possible to assign keyboard shortcuts for gnome shell via "system settings > keyboard" there would be no this bug report in the first place, I think.
Strange thing is that some assignments do work. For example I can assign Ctrl+Alt+T to launch calculator, "web browser" or "home folder", but not terminal. Even for web browser I can't use combinations with Super key. Eg., Ctrl+Super+T. It gets assigned OK, but does not work. By the way I can't find neither "web browser" nor "calculator" key in org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings (gsettings). It must be somewhere else. My another observation that is different from original bug description is that most default shortcuts actually work. Navigation, screenshots - all work. Super+up/super+down maximizes/restores window OK. Although Ctrl+Super+L does not lock screen, Super+S just passes 'S' letter. My gnome shell is 3.4 already. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/965921 Title: gnome-shell most keyboard shortcuts not working Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: gnome-shell keyboard shortcuts stopped working. Specifically, Ctrl+Alt+t no longer opens a terminal, my maximization shortcuts no longer work, navigation shortcuts don't work. The problem seems that gnome-shell 3.4 has switched to gsettings/dconf for its keyboard shortcuts but Unity still uses gconf. System Settings in Precise was patched to support gconf but it ought to support gsettings also.
