Comment 4 for bug 755898

I just made a little test : I changed the value of /desktop/gnome/applications/terminal/exec in gconf from "gnome-terminal" to "xterm" and now xterm has the right settings.

So the real problem is indeed that default keybindings and custom ones are somewhat started differently by gnome (or its keybindings daemon) and this is not fixed yet in Oneiric.
