Hi Alberts, Yes, Super+Tab only works before patch is added. It doesn't work after patch is added. As you said, Alt+Tab is an alternative for Super+Tab. I've done some more testing of Super key shortcuts using shortcuts from https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-keyboard-shortcuts.html.en The only other shortcut that worked in the unpatched metacity in the problem scenario, is Super+Shift+TAB, and Alt+Shift+Tab is an alternative. As there are alternatives for the 2 Super key shortcuts that worked in the unpatched metacity in the problem scenario, there should be few (or no) objections.

[Bug 1440570] Re: VNC'ing into gnome-session-flashback (Metacity) in non-shared desktop mode causes Super+KEY pressed behavior
Well fix does what it is supposed to do - prevents binding only keys without modifiers. For me on ubuntu 14.04 with default configuration Alt+Tab and Super+Tab does same thing. For testing I am using Remmina to connect to ubuntu 14.04. Without fix: s - opens menu Tab - switch between last two applications? With fix: s - does not open menu. Super + s is supposed to open, but it does not work. Tab - no longer switch. Alt+Tab works, Super + Tab does not. Main problem is this - could not find XKB extension. Because of this metacity fails to get modifier for Super key (and other keys). I would say that vnc simply needs to support xkb. Of course this might be fixed in metacity if it is possible to get modifiers without xkb extension. But I have no time to search for solution. I will set to verification-done since proposed fix does what it should and is already reported by two testers. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1440570 Title: VNC'ing into gnome-session-flashback (Metacity) in non-shared desktop mode causes Super+KEY pressed behavior To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/1440570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1440570] Re: VNC'ing into gnome-session-flashback (Metacity) in non-shared desktop mode causes Super+KEY pressed behavior
I have tested metacity 1:2.34.13-0ubuntu4.1 and while the s key now works correctly (no longer opens the Applications menu), the Super (Windows) key no longer works. For example, Windows+Tab no longer switches between application windows. I uninstalled the trusty proposed metacity, libmetacity-private0a + metacity-common, and reinstalled the current 1:2.34.13-0ubuntu4 versions to verify that the Windows key actually did work before the proposed patch. Some may say that the Super key not working is a much smaller problem than the s key always opening the Applications menu. I'd be OK with not being able to use the Super key but maybe others would consider this a serious regression. I'll leave it to others more qualified to decide if this should be flagged as verification-done or verification-failed. My testing was done using Windows 7 Remote Desktop Connection to connect to a Ubuntu 14.04.2 machine running xrdp. The Ubuntu machine is a client vm of a VMware vSphere host. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1440570 Title: VNC'ing into gnome-session-flashback (Metacity) in non-shared desktop mode causes Super+KEY pressed behavior To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/1440570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello Christopher, or anyone else affected, Accepted metacity into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/1:2.34.13-0ubuntu4.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.
