I would however prefer to customise this keyboard shortcut to something else (gnome-terminal). Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to System Setting > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts and add an entry by pressing "+"(Name: Terminal, Command: gnome-terminal) 2. Click the text "disabled" on the "Terminal" row 3. Press ALT+F1 4. Verify that ALT-F1 opens the terminal window 5. Restart the PC 6. Look in: System Setting > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts - looks like custom shortcut is still set. 7. Press ALT+F1 => dash home is highlighted, no terminal is opened By clicking the "Terminal" row in Custom shortcuts and pressing "apply" it seems like the shortcut is rewritten to produce a terminal window, but doing this after every restart seems ridiculous. I'm not sure if this problem lies specifically with gnome-control- center.. I suspect that other "standard shortcuts" be affected in a similar way. Thanks :) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: gnome-control-center 1:3.4.1-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic-pae 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: openafs ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri May 4 11:16:05 2012 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-control-center InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-control-center UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) usr_lib_gnome-control-center: activity-log-manager-control-center 0.9.4-0ubuntu3 deja-dup 22.0-0ubuntu2 gnome-bluetooth 3.2.2-0ubuntu5 indicator-datetime 0.3.94-0ubuntu2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/994486/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
