Version: (using KDE 4.2.1) Installed from: Mandrake RPMs shortcuts like the CTRL+L CTRL+SHIFT+N is not working (which were plasma activity shortcuts for lock/unlocking widgets and switch activity respectively ) How to Reproduce: 1.Login to kde4.2 desktop 2.unlock widgets 3.zoom out present activity and add another activity 4.try ctrl+l to lock/unlock widgets or ctrl+shift+n to switch between activities 5.It is not working Please look at the bug https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=48228 happens in UBUNTU too
Under KDE SC 4.3.4 (Debian), if I press "ALT+D, Left/Right" (instead of the step #4 described previously), it switches between the different activities without any problem.
Yes ,but the kde 4.2 with qt4.5 the plasma shortcuts were not working.See for example mandriva 2009.1 which contains kde 4.2.4. So seems it is not resolved. Can you please test? I am not talking about kde 4.3
kde 4.2 is not supported officialy by kde anymore, and there will be no more kde 4.2.x releases. But the bug is fixed in a more recent version of kde, so from the point of view of kde, the bug is indeed fixed. If you want that bug fixed in your distribution, you have to report it there and ask for a backport of the fix. thank you
