I have found how to manually assign the shortcut. It is hutterly broken from a UI design point of view, but works otherwise:
1) go to gnome-control-center / keyboard / shortcuts 2) Launch a terminal says: "Unactivated" (or something like that, here it's "Désactivé") 3) don't try to click on +-, click on the word "Unactivated". 4) turns into "New shortcut": press ctrl-alt-T Just found this out of luck, but the UI should really be fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/821505 Title: If a user ran gnome-control-centre under oneiric before 2011-09 then Ctrl-Alt-t will not start a Terminal and cannot be manually assigned either To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/821505/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
