[Bug 950160] Re: Unity blocks other programs from binding globally to Super+* or Alt+* (* = any key)

 

@James,

Bug 950160 and bug 741869 are different.

Bug 950160 has affected 3 projects now.  It is quite confusing to follow
since many bugs in different components are involved.  Keng-Yu's g-s-d
patch only fixes the issue in Unity 2D and Gnome shell.  It has nothing
to do with Unity 3D.  Unity3D/Compiz has a design issue which also
contributes to this bug.  They should not prevent g-s-d from receiving
the Super key event.

Please note that workaround #2 as mentioned in the description of this
bug does not work reliable on many machines.

bug 741869 targets Compiz.  It is the main cause why Super+p does not
work in Unity 3D. Comment #7 in bug 741869 points out a possible
direction how to fix it.
