Since updating nmy system from feroda 33 keyboard short cuts do not work. For example, I set the Yakuake open short cut to F8 because F7 seems to have been taken over by chrome. Pressing F8 does nothing. However I also change Yuakw to open when moving the mouse to the top of the screen, and that doen open yakuake. Pressing ctl-atl-backspace also dose nothing, even though the key combination is configured for kill destkop. I don't use a lot of shortcuts, but those are ones I do use, especially to open yakuake. Also the compose key does not work. I believe that is related to shortcuts not working. Note that I do not use wayland, which brings up what may be the problem. If I press ctl-alt f2 nothing happens. In the past that would switch to the first system terminal session. Pressing ctl-alt-f1 takes me to an empty screen. Could it be somthing to do with switching to x11? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. strike any system keyboard shortcut key conbination, 2. Attrempt to enter special character via assigned compose key Observed results 1. strike any defined system shoutcut key combination and nothing happens 2. Setting yakuake shortcut to F8 does not cause yakauke to open. 3. Ctl-Alt Backspace does nothin EXPECTED RESULT striking system keyboard shortcut key conbination should cause the action expected.

X or wayland? Is this all keyboard shortcuts? Can you still alt+tab? Please include output of "dbus-monitor" and pressing a shortcut.

x11. I also installed gdm and xdm and tried them. Didn't make any difference. Alt-tab seems to work, though it isn't sticky. I dont use that key combo ans so am not familiar with how it shuld work.

Alt-tab does bring up a graphical list of window in the current desktop, and it can be slow to show up the firts time. I assigned alt-F8 to launch Spectacle and that worked. It was not assigned before that. I assigned mets-F8 to launchsystem settings and that worked. It was not assigned before. Assigning meta-F8, or just F8, to open yakauke still doe not work.

Note that I switched to wayland and found that the shortcut still did not work. I didn't change anything in the configuration, but F8 was still set to Yakuake. However, the compose key does work in wayland, whereas it doesn't in X11.
