[Bug 1063617] Re: 1:0.9.8+bzr3319-0ubuntu1 regression: keeps setting gsettings keys to wrong values

 

This is just crazy.  I've been having this problem since 12.04....
12.10...13.04... and now 13.10.  Each time, I hope for a resolution.
This means that for approaching two years, my keyboard settings have
been resetting on each computer I own.  An old Thinkpad x41, a newer x61
and my desktop, a homebuilt AMD.

This is Unity on 13.10.

This includes Alt-<1-9> for desktop switching.
Alt instead of Super for window moving.
Alt-W for gnome-terminal (a custom shortcut - I can't use the built in terminal short-cut because it doesn't allow configuring the window size and position).

At this point, I think my options are:
1. switch to gnome-shell (not sure if this will work)
2. switch to KDE (horrors)
3. buy a Mac (talk about limiting my UI)
4. Get frustrated enough to figure out your code and fix it myself, not that I have the foggiest idea of how to approach it but I'm getting to that point.  
5. Just implement the start-up script workaround and forget about it.. leave it broken.  I should have done this a long time ago (assuming it'll work).  This is probably my next likely step.

It would be much easier if you just fixed it.  Please.  Please.  Please.
