Re: <Windows> Key + Red Hat 7.3?

[Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor vt edu>]

I just find it odd that it *used* to work, but now it doesn't.  Seems
like a regression in functionality.

Though I've found that it didn't work in any of the computer labs at
school, and I always found that annoying....

I'll have to submit this to RedHat Bugzilla, then...

Thanks,
 - Jon

    I believe this is a bug in the GNOME 2 keyboard shortcuts applet. 
    
    (It can't handle modifiers that GTK+ doesn't handle normally, and 
    GTK+ only deals with the "common" modifiers... of course, the
    shortcut capplet would then need to distinguish betwen locations
    where it could support the extra modifiers, and where it can't.)
    
    See: 
    
     http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83334
    
    (It was sitting in GNOME bugzilla as a GTK+ API request, but most of
    the functionality could be achieved without the GTK+ addition, so I've
    filed a separate GTK+ bug and moved it back to control-center.)
    
    If you care strongly about this, you might want to file a Red Hat
    bugzilla bug so we remember to at least evaluate how much work it
    would take to fix the issue.
