I often type Shift-Backspace by mistake, and I must have been doing it since I bought my current keyboard a year ago or more.
Just lately I've found that Shift-Backspace terminates my X session just the way Ctrl-Alt-Backspace did in the old days. This was an unpleasant surprise, as it's purely unintentional. I finally traced this strange behavior to a very old setting in my gnome desktop config files that effectively adds three XkbOptions: grp grp:alts_toggle terminate terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp caps caps:none I must have copy/pasted these items from somewhere a long time ago when trying to restore the old Ctrl-Alt-Backspace behavior, but I can't remember where I got them. Anyone understand how/why those old options are now being translated into to my current unwanted behavior? I'm running gentoo, which frequently updates all sorts of xorg- related packages and drivers, so it might have been any of them, dunno for sure. Any hints much appreciated :) _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
