Pressing "h" hides the window Edit
Ubuntu “vnc4” package Bugs Bug #1297904
Installed RCN build of 14.04 on BBB, added gnome-desktop,
tightvncserver. At first VNC connect, plain gray screen with X cursor in
VNC. Edited .vnc/xstartup per http://askubuntu.com/questions/475023/how-
to-make-vnc-server-work-with-ubuntu-desktop-without-xfce.
Now works, except 's' and 'd' are always shortcuts to system menu and minimize
all. So it isn't just vnc4 or 13.10...
Also up and down arrows are max/minimize! Can't use command history!
I fixed the 's' with dconf-editor:
in org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings,
Toggle shaded state was ['s']
No idea what "shaded" has to do with showing the system menu...
'd':
Hide all normal windows
['d', 'd', 'd']
Also maximize and unmaximize... Actually I searched for "keybin"
(couldn't type the 'd'!) and zapped anything with in it.
This would be easier if I could navigate in the dconf-editor window. My
mouse wheel moves several screenfulls up or down per "click", clicking
above or below the scroll thumb moves way more than a screenfull, and
dragging the thumb moves the content about 1/8 of cursor distance. The
only reliable way to see all of the entries is to use the down arrow key
to step through all of them!
And I'm only using dconf because somehow my
System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts panel is missing - just not
there... Can't find any clues how to fix that.
This kind of thing is why Linux is a niche market.
