Title: fix legacy keygrabber for gnome-ish sessions Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Saucy: Fix Committed Bug description: [ Description ] In Saucy, media keys in gnome-ish (using gnome-settings-daemon) sessions only work when gnome-panel or Unity are in use, as the code path checks for their names on the bus. They ought to work for all sessions. [ Fix ] Change the logic so that the keygrabber is started all the time except under Shell sessions. [ QA ] In a session that runs gnome-settings-daemon but neither panel nor shell (xfce or Openbox? or a custom xmonad), check that media keys now work. [ Regression potential ] Changes activation criteria for the legacy keygrabber. Check it still works in Unity, panel and that the new method works under shell. [ Original report ] The previous patch to fix the legacy keygrabber was Unity specific and breaks on gnome-ish sessions that require it, instead we should load the legacy keygrabber for any session that is not gnome-shell To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1235625/+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
