I don't think this is just to do with staging. I can reproduce it on a stock Ubuntu 12.10 desktop now: 1. Add a new user 2. Switch to that new user 3. Open several windows 4. Press Ctrl+Alt+D 5. Press Ctrl+Super+D Expected: Windows only hide on Ctrl+Super+D Observed: Windows only hide on Ctrl+Alt+D
This ONLY happens for the new user until the first reboot. Thereafter it is fixed (Ctrl+Super+D works). Now, some simple facts: 1. An Ubuntu build of Compiz contains NO mention of Ctrl+Alt+D at all. It is hardcoded to Ctrl+Super+D everywhere in compiz packages for Ubuntu. 2. When the bug occurs, the setting show-desktop in org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybinding is wrong: $ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings show-desktop ['<Primary><Alt>d', '<Primary><Super>d', '<Super>d'] But after a reboot it rights itself: $ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings show-desktop ['<Control><Primary><Super>d'] I don't believe Gnome has a hardcoded default of Ctrl+Alt+D. It looks like the offending setting comes from: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-settings.gschema.override show-desktop = ['<Primary><Alt>d','<Primary><Super>d','<Super>d'] provided by package: ubuntu-settings That's the only place on the system AFAIK that mentions Ctrl+Alt+D at all (Primary = Ctrl). So a local fix: 1. Edit /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-settings.gschema.override 2. Change: show-desktop = ['<Primary><Alt>d','<Primary><Super>d','<Super>d'] to: show-desktop = ['<Primary><Super>d'] 3. sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas And now new users will not get Ctrl+Alt+D forced upon them. They will get Ctrl+Super+D instead. A proper fix: Make the same edit as above in package "ubuntu-settings". Final notes: Why is there a race or some kind of delay in the application of gsettings overrides? No idea. I still don't understand overrides. didrocks will have more of a clue. ** Also affects: ubuntu-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073202 Title: Compiz packaging branch for staging PPAs fails to set up keybindings correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1073202/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
