Bug Description
I have compiz fusion (version 1:0.7.4-0ubuntu6) enabled on kubuntu 8.04, when alt-space is pressed katapult (version 0.3.2.1-3) does not start. Instead the window management menu will be displayed for the current application that has focus. When I removed compiz fusion and restarted the X server katapult will start when alt-space is pressed.
Hi there.
This is due to a conflict in Accelerators, unfortunately, if the accellerator is already in use, Katapult cannot use it.
Marking this as "Won't Fix" as this is a configuration issue.
However, if you run the command
dcop katapult Katapult showLauncher
and then hit ctrl+c - the configuration menu should show - select "Configure Global Shortcuts" here and then change the "Show Launcher" key shortcut.
