Reassigning bug. I have duplicated this behavior on a Dell Latitude D630 laptop (non-Macintosh keyboard) using identical steps above. Kubuntu 9.04, x86 Unfortunately I can't reproduce it here on Mandriva 2010.1 Beta. If it turn this option the Alt and Win buttons are swapped appropriately. I'd suggest you may try to update the xkeyboard-config package (in some distros it's packaged as x11-data-xkbdata) - maybe your key definitions is out of date. This bug is year old so hopefully it's not a problem any more. I could not reproduce it on my machine but if you still see it please feel free to reopen and provide more info. Bug appears for me specifically when re-mapping the shortcut after swapping. I use the "show desktop" icon as an example, as it's a frequently used icon on most desktops I've used and Win + D is the desired shortcut. This bug still exists on my recently upgraded Kubuntu 9.10 --> 10.04 KDE box. I can download the latest Mandriva and Kubuntu live CDs, but it will take some time before I can post confirmation. I do think that closing the bug may be premature but as recommended, I will reopen if I can reproduce. -Tres I've downloaded Mandriva 2010.0 (where's the beta on the site?) and the bug was still present. However, Kubuntu 10.04 32-bit live cd seems to have it fixed as suggested. Here are the screenshots to support: Mandriva 2010: http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/8692/snapshot1o.png Kubuntu 10.04: http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/7463/snapshot1x.png As recommended, I'll reopen if the issue is present after updating packages. -Tres Well, if latest Kubuntu does not have this problem my suspicion is that it was fixed in latest xkeyboard-config. You can either try to update this package to latest version in your current distro, or also try Mandriva 2010.1 RC (http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/2010.1_RC#Availability) |
