[Bug 729007] Re: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped
Thank you for the hint with unity --replace. I think the the status of this bug should be higher than "low" because it makes working in bash very complicated as meta key, the most people are used to, doesn't work. Its hard to get used to ESC instead ALT in bash... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729007 Title: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have a similar issue, not with a dotfile but with command line calls to xmodmap. Running 'xmodmap -e "remove Lock = Caps_Lock"' should disable the caps lock key. Under Unity in Natty Narwhal, it does not. Under Unity on the netbook edition of Maverick Meerkat, it worked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729007 Title: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Marko Thanks for the tip. Start a new "unity" from the shell fixes the problem of Alt+Key! I also found that if I disable the Unity in CCSM, then enable it will fix the problem too.

[Bug 729007] Re: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped
I noticed that starting another instance of "unity" from the shell fixes the problem of Alt+key in (emacs, gnome-terminal at least). When I startd "unity" from the shell, I noticed a screen flicker and then the desktop was restored in a good state. I suppose that when unity (or the unity compiz plugin) starts the first time it grabs at low level, what is the current "Super" key. Then the gnome-preference-settings (I don't remember the exact name) swaps the keys, but the new Alt key remains bound to unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729007 Title: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes. I have a fully updated Unity. And I also have a clean installed Ubuntu 11.04 on the PC, I swapped the left Alt and Win, then I wasn't be able to use "Alt+Num" to switch the Terminal tab. Please see the attachment, and you can try the swapped alt/win, it might happen on your desktop too.

It's odd that it's working at all for you with unswapped keys, because I think for most people this functionality is currently broken.

For Super+S/Super+M you can use F10 to jump to the panel, and then the arrow keys to move between indicators. I know it's not the same, but it's at least a work around while indicator keyboard shortcuts are thought about. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729007 Title: Untiy break the Alt related shortcuts if alt/win key are swapped -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
