In the keyboard preferences window, there's a layout settings button, it pops up another configuration window. Then there's an options button in that second window, somewhere in the layouts section. Then you get a third window pop up, that has a list of things you can configure, open the compose key position tree, and choose your preferred key. > I have seen other references to the "right-side windows key" but I > don't see any obvious candidate on my keyboard. (I have a Toshiba > Satellite 850 laptop). If I believe google image searches, you've got a left windows icon key, and a right windows menu key. You have alt keys either side (for which some things don't care which one you use, other things do) On some keyboards, you have useless keys that you can re-use, on others you might have to forgo another key. On one of mine, I probably picked the right CTRL key, since I'm used to using the left one any time I do a control key sequence. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
