Keyboard shortcuts in gnome-panel (e.g. Alt+F1, Alt+F2) stopped working after upgrade to 9.04

[gozdal]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

After upgrading to 9.04 I am unable to use keyboard shortcuts which used to work in 8.10. Tried changing the shortcuts in Settings but it did not help. Other shortcuts (e.g. Alt+Tab, volume keys, workspace switching) work without a hitch.

thank you for your bug report, do you run compiz, is the GNOME compatibility option enabled?

I do run compiz. I don't know how to check if the GNOME compatibility option
is enabled

$ ps auxwww | grep compiz

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

you can run ccsm to configure compiz

[gozdal (gozdal)]

Indeed enabling GNOME Compatibility in cssm fixed the issue. AFAIK there was
no "GNOME Compatibility" option in 8.10 and after upgrade it was not enabled
by default which is the root problem that caused the shortcuts to stop
working.
