[Bug 482822] Re: application launch keyboard shortcuts not working (<Meta>?)

 

Ok I misunderstood the issue, because there are two things going on
here:

 * We used to have some <Alt> shortcuts (the most simple being Ctrl-Alt-
Enter to open a terminal) and they have been lost when we moved to the
new XFCE config files: this now fixed in r199, all unique <Meta>
shortcuts have a <Alt> equivalent now.

 * The Meta key (win/home key) on your Eee is not working as expected
for shortcuts that are using <Meta>.

Is this correct?

Bug description:
In Settings > Keyboard > Application Shortcuts, it shows that xterm should be launchable using <Control><Meta>Return but that's not happening for me (Eee 701). This is with the default keymapping (us) and also after running "setxkbmap gb".

These ones work for me: <Alt>F2 (xfrun4); <Control>Escape (xfce4-popup-menu), ... any that don't involve <Meta> I think. (Meta on the Eee being a key near the lower left with a pic of a house on it, pretty sure that's right.)
