I would agree on the complexity of the config interface. Working on that. The control key is not actually our default; instead, for some users who upgrade, Sawfish decides to switch to control (we ship with alt). The problem hasn't been tracked down yet. For fresh user accounts it should be alt. Hate to break this news: This was on a new install, not an upgrade. It was a "Custom" install though; perhaps the bug is something common to Custom/Upgrade installs but different from Server/Workstation installs? Wait, I take that back. It was a new install, BUT my account is NFS mounted from another box. It probably picked up and upgraded that when I started GNOME and changed it to control. Sorry for the confusion. OK... so it's a strange upgrade issue. Right, the issue is that some old version of Sawfish wrote something weird in a config file in your home directory, that somehow causes the new version of Sawfish to switch to alt. Twilight zone. ;-) I meant "switch to control" obviously, sorry. *** Bug 50259 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Sawfish is no longer the default WM, and I believe now defaults to almost no keybindings. |
