Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-control-
Fresh install of 9.10 karmic into a VMware virtual machine (host O/S is 8.10). All updates applied (October 31, 2009).
Nowhere do I read that you have to logout/login for keyboard shortcut disables to take effect.
If disables are supposed to work without a logout/login, then this is a bug in the software. If you are supposed
to logout/login for a shortcut disable to be effective, then this is a bug in the documentation and the
"Keyboard Shortcuts" window should say "logout/login for changes to take effect".
Pick any keyboard shortcut and disable it, e.g. "Minimize window / ALT-F9".
The UI says "disabled" but the shortcut still works, until logout/login.
There are more problems with re-assigning keyboard shortcuts; I'll document them in a separate report.
