I've found a bit of hope with this problem. Asking about raise/lower on the #compiz channel, I was pointed to the vigo plugin for compiz at: http://www.acc.umu.se/~janlert/vigo/
Getting it to compile required a few additional packages (compiz-dev, compiz-fusion-bcop, libtool). Other tools are probably necessary that I already had installed (e.g. build-essential). Once those packages were installed, I was able to do a 'make; make install' and the plugin was built and installed into ~/.compiz/plugins/libvigo.so. Once installed, I was able to use the CompizConfig Settings Manager (package compizconfig-settings-manager) to go into the vigo plugin under "Window Management" and set the keybinding I wanted. Logged out, killed the X server, logged back in and I have raise-lower! All that being said... this is *STILL* a bug in Ubuntu. There is still UI element under System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts > Window Management labeled "Raise obscured window, otherwise lower" that does nothing but waste people's time. -- setting a hotkey for raise/lower window doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216550 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
