Okay, I just tested gnome-shell and unity in both oneiric and precise, This is what I have gnome-shell | unity(compiz) = 11.10 Works |Works 12.04 Fails |Fails In both cases where it works, a p is still echoed to the window that has focus. At least as far as the regression aspect of it goes, this seems to have nothing to do with unity. Though we could work-around it in unity using the aforementioned solutions.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
Thank you, James! I tested your workaround on some machines from different vendors, which used to have this super+p issue. I confirm that it can fix the problem. The comment above is contrary to Daniel's comment in #55. James may be right that whichever starts later gets to grab the event. I am not sure if there is any side effect to start gnome-settings-daemon in the Application phase, which seems to be a bit late. Since we only want to start g-s-d after compiz, which is started in WindowManager phase. timchen119 suggested to start it in the Panel phase, which is the next phase after WindowManager phase. So I also tested machines with that line changed to: X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Panel So far everything works fine. --- For a list of GNOME session phase: https://live.gnome.org/SessionManagement/GnomeSession -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950160 Title: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key) Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Fix Released Status in OEM Priority Project: Incomplete Status in OEM Priority Project precise series: Incomplete Status in Unity: Triaged Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “compiz” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “unity” source package in Precise: Triaged Status in “compiz” source package in Quantal: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Status in “unity” source package in Quantal: Triaged Bug description: WORKAROUND 1: Run CCSM and under Ubuntu Unity Plugin change the key binding for Key to show the launcher to something else (e.g. Super+U).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
Hi Omar, Yes, the issue is still happening. I don't know the specifics of XkbStateNotify events, but it seems that whatever registers the key the latest gets priority. Thus, if g-s-d starts after compiz, it will get Super+p events, even though Unity (compiz) still gets the Super key when pressed in isolation. The fix to g-s-d didn't fix the underlying problem of Unity swallowing Super+p, just that if g-s-d gets the event it'll do the proper thing.

@James, Bug 950160 and bug 741869 are different. Bug 950160 has affected 3 projects now. It is quite confusing to follow since many bugs in different components are involved. Keng-Yu's g-s-d patch only fixes the issue in Unity 2D and Gnome shell. It has nothing to do with Unity 3D. Unity3D/Compiz has a design issue which also contributes to this bug. They should not prevent g-s-d from receiving the Super key event. Please note that workaround #2 as mentioned in the description of this bug does not work reliable on many machines. bug 741869 targets Compiz.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
Time for a status update: We know that there is a workaround that if you start g-s-d after compiz starts, you _can_ use super+p to switch the monitor. We're not sure if this is the way it was done in 11.10 and if that's why it works in 11.10 but not in 12.04. However, the easiest fix is probably to make sure that g-s-d is started after compiz in whatever application starts both.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
for detailed the term Unity in Summary section means unityshell component in unity. 1. BIOS/HW sends Super+P scan code when user press function key in laptop and then convert to X key event by kernel and X server to the Compiz. 2. unityshell is a Compiz plugin and defines a lot of action callbacks for specified keys. so Compiz will pass the X key event to all plugins for trigger the key event handling ( PrivateScreen::handleActionEvent - PrivateScreen::triggerKeyPressBindings in $compiz_src/src/event.cpp) 3. if the keycode and modifier defines in the Action is as the same as the keycode and modifier in X event, the Action callback will be executed, then Compiz thinks this X event is handled. for example, action callback for Super key is to show Unity Launcher. 4. if Compiz thinks this X event is handled it will stop to handling X event if private screen does not grab any devices. if this X event is not handled , Compiz then thinks it maight be Focus-In, Focus-Out, etc, and continue trigger the related handling function. so far, there is an question comes up in my mind, why the action callback of Super key which is defined in unitshell will be triggered when user press Super+p and this symptom should not be happened.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
It's actually two bugs, and perhaps it should be rewritten to reflect that. The bug in unity is that it captures the super key, and refuses access to anything further in the stack, including g-s-d. We have found a workaround for super-P for g-s-d, and that's what the verification-needed is about. So if super-P switches between monitors, the bug should be considered verification-done, from the g-s-d side of things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950160 Title: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key) Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Fix Released Status in OEM Priority Project: Confirmed Status in OEM Priority Project precise series: Confirmed Status in Unity: Confirmed Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “compiz” source package in Precise: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “unity” source package in Precise: Confirmed Status in “compiz” source package in Quantal: Confirmed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Quantal: Fix Committed Status in “unity” source package in Quantal: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND 1: Run CCSM and under Ubuntu Unity Plugin change the key binding for Key to show the launcher to something else (e.g. Super+U).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)
Hi Daniel, Your workaround may not work for the super+P (video out switch event), because it is handled by gnome-settings-daemon. (of course technically it can be done, but that means we need to write a new program to do that) And I want to know what has changed in 12.04 Unity with regard to the Super key, because the Super+P key sequence, which is sent by the video out hotkeys, has been working fine in 11.10 and before.
