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

 

I've solved this problem by removing this line from/etc/xdg/autostart
/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop

X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Initialization

In my limited testing, I've seen no negative consequences. I'll run it
for a few more days and let people know.

If anyone has a 11.10 installation, please paste the output of 'ps
axf'. The most important bit is which started first, compiz or gnome-
settings-daemon. It seames whichever starts later gets to grab the
event.

Note this does not fix Super+* in the general case, but from testing
g-s-d any application that starts later should have priority and be able
to successfully grab the event.
