Bug ID: 393520
Summary: Certain key shortcuts don't work
Product: frameworks-kglobalaccel
Version: 5.45.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: jon.re...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I'm trying to set some keyboard shortcuts in KDE. Some key combinations will
work, and others won't, without explanation. For instance, I'm trying to set
"Switch One Desktop Down" to Meta+N. I can set it fine, but then pressing
Meta+N doesn't do anything. If I bind it to some other key combination, like
Meta+H, or Alt+(, it works fine.
If I open a terminal and type one of the key combinations I set, working ones
don't show anything, but non-working ones print things in the terminal. For
instance, since Meta+H works, I'll type Meta+H in a terminal, and nothing
happens, since it's bound to "Switch to Desktop to the Right," and there is no
right desktop. But if I type Meta+N, I see the terminal display @sn. Same for
Meta+I, another key combination that isn't working. If I type Meta+I in a
terminal, it prints @si.
I looked in the config files (kglobalshortcutsrc) and nothing looks out of the
ordinary there. I tried searching the file for other instances of Meta+N, in
case there is a conflict, but there isn't more than one entry.
I tried running dbus-monitor, to see what it's seeing, and I also tried
removing kglobalshortcutsrc and khotkeysrc, setting everything to defaults, and
setting everything to "none."
I'm using Arch, with the latest KDE packages. If I'm not mistaken, this is a
recent development, since KDE didn't have this problem a few days ago. I tried
downgrading kwin, and kglobalaccel, but neither has worked yet.
