I found what it seems to be a breakthrough on this issue. I hope it does not only relate to my case.
I use a Colemak layout. Compared to the standard QWERTY, in Colemak the T is where the F is in QWERTY, and where T is in QWERTY Colemak has a G. See http://colemak.com/wiki/images/e/ef/Colemak_fingers.png for a visual comparison. Well, what do you know? ctrl-alt-t does not work, but ctrl-alt-g (which is the qwerty shortcut for ctrl-alt-t) behaves as expected, firing up the terminal. It looks like the package responsible for the CTRL-ALT-T shortcut still uses the default keyboard layout, not picking up the new layout (Colemak in my case) at startup. Perhaps a loading order bug? Can you guys test it and see if that's the case for you too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1432484 Title: ctrl+alt+t hot key doesn't open terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1432484/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
