Hi, I've just tried to set up some keyboard shortcuts, using Gnome, and found that some will not do anything, just like when I tried to do the same back on FC4, and I'm darned if I can find anything helpful about this. Some of the functions available in the editor do nothing, yet the keys assigned do work, e.g. The lock screen function doesn't work, no matter what keys I use as the shortcut. Yet other functions do work, e.g. the "Run a terminal" will open a terminal, even if I assign it a key without a proper name, e.g. 0x7a showing in the configuration window. Desktop Launch help browser - does nothing Log out - haven't tested Sleep - haven't tested Lock screen - does nothing Home folder - does nothing Search - does nothing Email - does nothing Launch web browser - does nothing Show the panel run application dialog - works Show the panel menu - works, but not always Take a screenshot - works Take a screenshot of a window - works Run a terminal - works Sound Volume mute - does nothing Volume down - does nothing Volume up - does nothing Play (or play/pause) does nothing Pause - does nothing Stop playback key - does nothing Skip to previous track - does nothing Skip to next track - does nothing Eject - does nothing I didn't bother going through all the rest. I'm mostly interested in getting the volume, play, track skipping ones to work, and the screen locking one would be handy. But how do you go about this? In the past I have got XMMS to work with the audio buttons on an FC4 box, but I don't recall having to do anything more than see that keys had certain X names applied (such as, out of the various play/pause names that could be picked from, only specific ones worked). -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.1-33.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
