I just wanted to say that I ran into the same problem using KDE4.1 as you KDE3 users are describing. Thankfully, the solution is much the same as above work arounds.
I opened ccsm and went to the general options > key bindings and set run dialog to alt+f6 (it seems to be otherwise unused). I then opened the commands tab (again, in CCSM > general options > commands) and set command line 0 to simply "krunner". Then, under key bindings put run command 0 to alt+f2. This has allowed me to access the oh so loveable run dialog with Compiz running on KDE4. I realize this is for KDE3 users, but it seems like the problem still exists in KDE4 to some extent. As you see, its basically the same to everything about but instead of using "dcop kdesktop KDesktopIface popupExecuteCommand" you are simply using "krunner". Good luck and cheers for the great info! -- Compiz disables Alt-F2 for run dialog in KDE3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
