Thank you, James! I tested your workaround on some machines from different vendors, which used to have this super+p issue. I confirm that it can fix the problem.
The comment above is contrary to Daniel's comment in #55. James may be right that whichever starts later gets to grab the event. I am not sure if there is any side effect to start gnome-settings-daemon in the "Application" phase, which seems to be a bit late. Since we only want to start g-s-d after compiz, which is started in "WindowManager" phase. timchen119 suggested to start it in the "Panel" phase, which is the next phase after "WindowManager" phase. So I also tested machines with that line changed to: X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Panel So far everything works fine. --- For a list of GNOME session phase: https://live.gnome.org/SessionManagement/GnomeSession -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/950160 Title: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/950160/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
