Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.7) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc 4.1.2 OS: Linux I set "Walk Though Windows" on WIN+TAB. Pressing WIN+TAB shows the window list and I can cycle normally. But the window is not switched after stopping pressing both buttons (the default ALT+TAB works perfectly well). One has to press another key to switch the windows. This maybe connected to http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140023 There Martin Aumueller posted a working work-around: xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Super_L" xmodmap BEFORE theis command: sebschub@tux ~ $ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock control Control_L (0x25), Control_L (0x42), Control_R (0x6d) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d), Meta_L (0x9c) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80) mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x71), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c) AFTER: sebschub@tux ~ $ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock control Control_L (0x25), Control_L (0x42), Control_R (0x6d) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d), Meta_L (0x9c) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80), Super_L (0x73) mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x71), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
Works for me for ages (except for bug with empty list). I press win, tab, release tab, release win --> windows switch.
What information do you get when you do a # xmodmap ? Any special parts in you X configuration? I use xorg-server 1.3.0.0 and xf86-input-keyboard 1.1.1 and my configuration looks like that: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "de" EndSection
Also seeing this bug on a recent KDE trunk. (Have been for a while, in fact, but didn't get around to looking for it in BZ until just now.) The workaround works for me, with xmodmap outputs similar to what Sebastian listed.
compiled KDE 4.2.87 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090519); sidux Setting Window Switching from Alt+Tab to leftWindow+Tab results in the following behaviour: The active window is switched (to the last active one). But the window list does not occur (I am using "no effect"). So you cannot switch more than one window back in the list. $ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock Caps_Lock (0x42) control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x69) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Meta_L (0xcd) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Super_L (0xce), Hyper_L (0xcf) mod5 ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c), Mode_switch (0xcb)
I cannot reproduce this issue. I am using Meta(Win)+Tab rather regularly on various systems and never run into it. I can remember that it did not work some years ago. Is anyone still able to reproduce?
I don't have this problem anymore and I guess we an close this in a couple of days if no one says otherwise. Now, Walk through Windows (Reverse) does not work on Meta+Shift+Tab....
I have tested this now again in KDE4.4.5 (debian/sid) and I also cannot reproduce the wrong behaviour anymore. It seems everything to be ok.
