From your description, it sounds like an application is grabbing these keys, and that the application is Gnome itself. I don't use Gnome, but I have seen here people recommending 'Gnome tweak tool' as a way to change Gnome options. It might also be possible to change this in the application itself to something else, say Ctrl+ or WinMenu+. There is a small chance that this is Wayland; I can't advise how to fix that as I am unfamiliar with it, but a search should turn up options. The above assumes that the keys aren't hard coded into the application; that shouldn't be the case these days, but if it is, you would have to download the src.rpm, unpack it using rpmbuild, create a patch to override the encoded default, rebuild the binary rpm, and install it. To prevent it from being replaced on update, you would then have to block updates in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf. Major hassle. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
