This was a patch that sun added, and never made it upstream. It's fixed in later versions of GNOME. not sure how to do this properly, but cross-referencing: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88805 from http://oneguycoding.com/ ------- One of the things that's been bugging me about Gnome 2.2, or more specifically bluecurve in RedHat 9.0 is the inability to specify global keyboard shortcuts (aka hotkeys) for specific commands. For example, to open a gnome terminal session (or xterm, etc) I used to always set a shortcut keystroke of Ctrl-Alt-C (for console). Today, I finally figured out how to do this while browsing around in gconf- editor, which is somewhat similar in functionality to the Windows Registry Editor, except the changes are stored in xml files under ~/.gconf. Okay, here's a step by step method for setting keybindings in metacity in a gnome 2.2 environment, Run gconf-editor Open apps/metacity/global_keybindings Edit one of run_command_1 through run_command_12 and specify a keybinding to use to run that command (eg. "<Ctrl><Alt>c") Open apps/metacity/keybinding_commands Specify a command that you want to run after hitting the keybinding specified above (eg. gnome-terminal --geometry 90x40+50+50) Repeat as necessary Duplicate of bug #88805. |
