[Bug 38243] Re: Dapper: Window properties no longer has an option for Super
You mean to say the Window properties dialog checks whether I have a Super modifier in my keymap, and shows/hides that option automatically? That would be a very sensible thing to do. I have an extra key on my European ThinkPad keyboard, between LShift and Z. I've mapped it to Super_L with xmodmap: xmodmap -e 'keycode 94 = Super_L Super_L' -e 'clear mod4' -e 'add mod4 = Super_L' I added a shell script with this xmodmap invocation late in my gnome session. It could be that I do not exactly get the correct result: xev shows that Super_L autorepeats, while Alt_L/Ctrl_L don't. OTOH xev shows the state as 0x40 if I press any other key while holding down Super_L. If I try to define a key binding in gnome-keybinding-properties, I see Super_L immediatelly -- the dialog doesn't treat it as a modifier and doesn't give me an opportunity to press an additional key. This used to work (and I still have a number of Mod4foo mappings) a couple of Ubuntu versions ago, although I do not remember if I used the same xmodmap hack, or my own hacked xkb keymap (that stopped working after upstream X.org keymaps got reorganized). I might have to carve a custom xkb keymap again. In the meanwhile, I suspect you could reproduce the odd state of two simultaneously selected mutually exclusive radio buttons by selecting a keymap with a Super key, choosing it as the window drag modifier, and then choosing a keymap without a Super key. -- Dapper: Window properties no longer has an option for Super https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/38243 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thanks for the bug report - especially the 'GNOME gods' part made me chuckle. I need some information: does the Super key work say in the Keyboard properties? Because for me the dialogue works nicely: it has 3 choices (ctrl, alt and super) and I can only choose one at a time. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- Dapper: Window properties no longer has an option for Super https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/38243 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
