(Get the code!)
here is some more troubleshooting:
0. rebooted the system
1. created a bash script, that just appends current date and time to a some log file:
#!/bin/bash
date >> ~/date.log
2. went to System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Custom Shortcuts, created a new shortcut with command /home/stepank/
3. opened console, typed tail -f ~date.log, opened several windows (Skype, Pidgin, Google Chrome, gedit) and pressed Ctrl + Shift + M from all the windows, so far everything worked fine, i saw several new lines with date in console
4. after about 10 minutes the hotkey stopped working if it is fired from gedit (if i hit it from gedit, there appears no new lines in the log, if i hit it from any other window, new lines readily appear)
5. killed gnome-settings-
6. ran xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p' to grab events. pressing Ctrl + Shift + M with focus on Event Tester resulted in the following lines written in console:
keycode 37 = (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), state = 0x0
keycode 50 = (keysym 0xffe1, Shift_L), state = 0x4
keycode 58 = (keysym 0x4d, M), state = 0x5
keycode 58 = (keysym 0x4d, M), state = 0x5
keycode 50 = (keysym 0xffe1, Shift_L), state = 0x5
keycode 37 = (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), state = 0x4
This looks ok. According to https:/
