Then log out and in again. As long as no compiz plugin is bound to the single Super key any more, compiz will no longer block other apps from binding to Super+other_keys. WORKAROUND 2: 1. Write a script or figure out the command to do the action you want. 2. Run ccsm. 3. Enable the "Commands" plugin 4. In the Commands settings, fill in the command line you want and bind it to key Super+P. Now Unity will run your specified command on Super+P, but still handle the Super key as usual. [Precise SRU Justification] [Impact] Any shortcut with Super, Hyper, Meta virtual modifiers does not work [Test Case] Attach an external monitor to the laptop, press Super+P, it should do the video switch as this function is implemented in gnome-settings-daemon. A patch in comment #12 is now accepted upstream and a test package with that patch is available in comment #14. From the test result, the patch at least fixes Unity-2D. [Regression Potential] The patch is accepted upstream and is also cherry-picked in the gnome-3-4 branch of g-s-d git tree. g-s-d version in Precise is 3.4.2. So the risk of regression should be rather low. [Other] I prepare a debdiff in comment #31 for convenience. I hope the patch can be in both Quantal and Precise. ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Using : 12.04 Beta 1, updated. and Unity. In 11.10 clicking: - the function key (Fn) + (F1) allowed to switch between the laptop screen and the external monitor. After upgrading to 12.04 this no more works and instead I get an unexpected behavior: see the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vEnrV5TwXo System: Dell XPS 15 L502X ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: ubuntu-sso-client 2.99.90-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-18.28-generic 3.2.9 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Mar 8 19:18:42 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: ubuntu-sso-client UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-03-02 (6 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/950160/+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
