Bug#781308: xfce4-settings: Some keys on keyboard don't work after installing xfce4-settings 4.12.0-1
Hi, I investigated further and for me the bug is caused by this line in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml: Binding this command to another key combination fixes the problem. I still don't know why shortcut breaks an unrelated key and why restarting xfsettings manually fixes the issue. -- Gabriel

Hi, I have the same problem on two different computers with the "ù" key of the French (fr(oss)) keyboard: KeymapNotify event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 4294967209 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Restarting xfsettingsd (pkill xfsettingsd && xfsettingsd) makes the key work again. Removing some configuration files in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml (probably xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml) and restarting xfce seems to fix the problem as well for some time but it comes back again at some point. -- Gabriel

Hi Yves-Alexis, - does it happens everytime you run Xfce or only the first time after the upgrade? It doesn't matter how often I reboot or install the packages. - is there something bound to those keys? Your question leaded me to debug my userprofile. After about an hour debugging, I found out, that the problem was a line which I used recently to check something. I found the line in my configuration, which was the problem. I used it a while ago to debug something. But still it is bound to EuroSign and not the key e. The line is: property name=EuroSign type=string value=/bin/true/ To reproduce the problem I needed only to create the following file with the following contents. I have to mention, that I use a German keyboard layout. The € sign is right Alt + e ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? channel name=xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts version=1.0 property name=commands type=empty property name=custom type=empty property name=override type=bool value=true/ property name=EuroSign type=string value=/bin/true/ /property /property /channel After changing my Keyboard Layout a few times while debugging, I cannot again reproduce the problem with the 4. It disappeared. But still there is something wrong. My solution was to delete the line. But I'm able to add such an entry by using the xfce4-keyboard-settings under Application Shortcuts. So it is not an outdated way to write the key binding. Hope it will help you to debug the problem.

Package: xfce4-settings Version: 4.10.1-2 Severity: normal Package: xfce4-settings Version: 4.12.0-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I wanted to try out the new xfce4-display-settings from 4.12, so I installed all xfce4 related stuff from experimental. After installing it both keyboards (bluetooth and normal laptop keyboard) had a few keys not working anymore. It where the 4 and e keys. There are still keyboards events, but xev -event keyboard has no window associated to it.
