Hi, I'm having a weird problem with my windows key : it seems to be inactive, that is I can't use it in a keyborad shortcut as before, like W+x to launch a terminal.
Last september my hard drive crashed, so I installed an aptosid (http://aptosid.com/) instead of my previous Debian Sid. I installed my old conf files for openbox, which include keybord shortcuts that worked, like (in rc.xml) : <keybind key="W-x"> <action name="Execute"> <command>urxvt</command> </action> </keybind> But it doesn't work anymore. If I use <keybind key="A-x"> instead, alt+x launches my terminal, but it interferes whith emacs. I searched, I tried different commands, searched in configuration files for X and others, but I didn't manage to find a solution. Here is my /etc/default/keyboard : # KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE # Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.
