Re: [Bug 955876] Re: Possible have wrong values in Metacity gconf/gsettings keys
Hy, This bug random time happening with Ubuntu 12.04.1 too, affected desktop environments is GNOME3 fallback session, Unity 2d session. Both two desktop environments I experienced this issue. If this bug happening, impossible to use common keybindings (ALT+F4, ALT+TAB, etc) until I not deleting entire .gconf/apps/metacity folder, not logout and login back. Lot of users wrote this problem with Ubuntu Accessibility and Orca mailing lists, some time happening this bug after a fresh installation. If an user not known what folder need erasing when experiencing this bug, he impossible to use he's system with keyboard. Visualy impaired users only possible to use he's system with keyboard navigation. Fortunately in Quantal already not existing this issue, I newer experienced this issue, so only Precise affected. I think the bug related with following Metacity changes with Precise, but I am not full sure this: * debian/metacity-common.gconf-defaults: - change the shortcuts as per design request: (LP: #969235) Ctrl + Super + D Minimises all windows Ctrl + Super + Cursor up Maximises the current window Ctrl + Super + Cursor down Restores or minimises current window This patch released in Metacity 1:2.34.1-1ubuntu10 version. Another possibility: * debian/patches/101_override_gconf_settings.patch: - gives a way to override gconf settings by a keyfile. This is useful in case of late fallback (after the logging manager) (LP: #791205) This patch released in Metacity 1:2.34.1-1ubuntu2 version. If have possibility, please fix this bug in Metacity. Temporary I change this bug status with high.

[Bug 955876] Re: Possible have wrong values in Metacity gconf/gsettings keys
Ryan Lortie wrote following comment my upstream report: hi Attila, This is not a bug in dconf, but rather in metacity. The bug no longer exists because metacity switched to using GSettings a while ago (which is quite a lot more strict when it comes to checking types vs. the schemas). Ubuntu has been intentionally using an older version of metacity for some time specifically because they needed the GConf support for compatibility with Compiz (which has not yet made the change to GSettings, but will soon). Long story short: this bug is already fixed in GNOME and will soon be fixed in Ubuntu as well (ie: before 12.10 release). My question: possible fix this error anyway in Ubuntu 12.04 to not happening this type mismatch with Metacity keybindings some time?

Re: [Bug 955876] Re: Possible have wrong values in Metacity gconf/gsettings keys
Hy, I think this problem is affecting a shared component with using all desktop environments, and possible this problem not depending with Metacity window manager. For example now in Ubuntu Accessibility List an user wrote following: Hi all, I did a fresh install of Ubuntu Precise and got Orca 3.4.1 running in Unity 2D. When Alt_Tab for switching windows, Control_Alt_right-arrow to switch to the next workspace and Control_Super_D for minimizing all windows won't work deleting the .gconf/apps/metacity folder solves the problem after logging out and logging in. Fortunately Control_Alt_T to open a terminal, Alt_F1 to the launcher still doing fine when this problem occurs. The next time I starts up the machine I have the same problem with the Alt_Tab, etc. Do I miss something else to do for this problem to solve? Milton Possible some time gsettings-data-convert service generating wrong settings the conversion? More users experienced similar issues under Unity 2d, GNOME Shell, and GNOME3 fallback session, and usual the .gconf/apps/metacity folder delete resolve temporary this problem. If this bad settings conversion happening, why have type mismatch differences with following keys? /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_workspace_left, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_workspace_right, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_workspace_up, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/move_to_workspace_down, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_windows, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_group, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_panels, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/cycle_windows, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/cycle_group, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/cycle_panels, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/show_desktop, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_left, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_right, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_up, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_down, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/panel_run_dialog, /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/panel_main_menu, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/activate_window_menu, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_fullscreen, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_maximized, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/unmaximize, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_shaded, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/close, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/minimize, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/begin_move, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/begin_resize, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_on_all_workspaces, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/raise_or_lower, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/raise, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/lower, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize_vertically, /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize_horizontally.
