I just found out about gconf-editor and have been crawling through here customizing my gnome desktop to my exact specifications – this program lets you do just about anything you can think of to the gnome environment. This evening I just wanted my shortcut keys working again.
- Hit <Alt>F2 then type
gconf-editorand hit <enter> - Click Apps > metacity > keybinding_commands
gconf-editor - Apps > metacity > keybinding_commands
You’ll notice I’ve already added some common programs and commands in. Under keybinding_commands panel simply double click the Value line and type in the command you would like to make a shortcut for. Now click on global_keybindings to make the actual keyboard shortcuts.
gconf-editor: Apps > metacity > global_keybindings
Here I’ve actually created the shortcuts themselves. <Super> is for the Windows key, followed by a letter to finish it off. <Super>g opens up pidgin, <Super>c for xchat, ect.
