Description Kevin 2008-04-07 15:52:20 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Alt+Tab stops working, what is very annoying. Then all programs handle alt+tab like tab.
Don't know why; there is no error message shown.

I even don't know if this is a kwin bug. Is there a program working in the background? Then I could at least restart it....

Desktop Effects are activated.

A little hint I just discovered.
Under, System Settings / Keyboard & Mouse / Keyboard Shortcuts, I can't set any shortcut.
Maybe the program which has to handle shortcuts has crashed?

Sorry, but I don't have much knowledge about the parts of kde.

Comment 2 Kevin 2008-04-07 19:45:29 UTC

I just recognized that it seems to be bigger problem, because other shortcuts like alt+f4/... don't work, too..

Only shortcuts activated in the program which has focus works.
So there has to be a problem with all global shortcuts.

I tried to find out sth about it (has to do with kded, doesn't it?)
but there isn't much documentation on the web (or at least I wasn't able to find sth..)

I'm sorry about the wrong title of this bug. I wondered if there is an edit function?
