From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: When I add an keyboard shortcut to the Fedora->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts applet, the underlying (simply alt+ or ctrl+) key gets changed. Basically, I lose the ability to type the letter "q" if I use Ctrl-q. xev shows that the underlying keycode has been changed: KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x48, subw 0x0, time 92058680, (142,87), root:(147,131), state 0x10, keycode 24 (keysym 0x1008ff14, XF86AudioPlay), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False ... and I have to use xmodmap to restore the key mapping. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-2.8.0-12 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open gnome-keybinding-properties. 2. Change the accelerator for "Play" to Ctrl-q. 3. Try to type the letter q in another open window. Actual Results: Nothing appears to occur when you press q. All the other keys on the keyboard function. Expected Results: I expect to see the letter q! Additional info:
Hi Sam, Are you still seeing this in FC4 or rawhide?
Having returned to FC4 from Debian unstable, I'm unable to replicate the bug.
