Bug Description
Binary package hint: xfce4-settings
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu.
"lsb_release -rd" output:
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
(This is Xubuntu)
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy packagename' or by checking in Synaptic.
"apt-cache policy" output:
xfce4-settings:
Installed: 4.6.0-1ubuntu2
Candidate: 4.6.0-1ubuntu2
Version table:
*** 4.6.0-1ubuntu2 0
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
3) What you expected to happen
1. Open keyboard configuration (Applications→
2. Switch to "Application Shortcuts" tab
3. Click "Add" button
4. Enter command in "Shortcut Command" dialog and click "OK" button
5. Press Super_L (left "Windows" key) and Space (or Super_L and Esc) in "Command Shortcut" dialog
6. Command shortcut dialog closes
7. New command shows up in shortcut list with shortcut set to "<Super>Space" or "<Super>Esc"
4) What happened instead
After command shortcut dialog closes, the new command does not show up in the shortcut list. If the shortcut already exists and I try changing the shortcut to <Super>Space or <Super>Esc, the shortcut key combo does not change. I can use Super with all other keys I've tested, such as letters, numbers, arrows, symbols, modifiers (shift, control, alt, etc.), print screen, pause, etc. If these two key combinations cannot be used for some reason, the application should display a notice when I try using them instead of silently failing.
