gnome-common is a package for helping to build gnome applications. You might want control-center (for the gnome-window-properties program) or one of the gnome libraries instead. thx, switch to control-centre What's the movement key? I don't understand the problem at all. Please explain step-by-step how to reproduce the problem and what you expected to happen. Its bug in some where in X server system. As i understand this problem X server make copy of some keycodes within global variables and those keys going unmappable. Almost all keys mappable by xmodmap way, except some special keys: shift, ctrl, print screen and some other modifiers. For example: create simple xmodmap which map all special keys. Try to map shit to ctrl and ctrl to shift. Print key to F12 and F12 to print. Alt key to Super and Super to Alt. As i expect exceything should works as i described above, but threy wont work in this way. Gnome wont to remember you map alt key to other and its still work with old Alt as window movement key. here an example: Default code for Super_L is 133, code for Alt_L is 64. In my system gnome window movement key is Super_L. then i can remap Super_L as Alt_L and Alt_L as Super_L. [axet@axet-laptop ~]$ cat test keycode 64 = Super_L keycode 134 = Alt_L [axet@axet-laptop ~]$ xmodmap test Now i want try to move window by Alt_L key, because its should work as Super_L. But its wont to work! Also Super_L doesn't do its job... This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
