Re: Is it possible to launch an application when we press Ctrl + Alt +Del

["Renju Anand" <renju.anand@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks. It works. One more thing i would like to know. Now i'm able to disable the Ctrl+Alt+Del behavior. I want to run my application instead of that logout. Is it possible ?. When  we disable this,in which file this information goes. i guess in some %gconf.xml. If you know about this, please help..

Thanks

You should only edit gconf files under very specific conditions, please
don't edit them, use the tools instead. Two tools you can use are
gconftool and gconf-editor.

Now.. to disable the 'alt-control-delete' effect - edit your keyboard
shortcuts and disable 'log out' under 'desktop'. The keyboards shortcuts
dialog is in system/preferences. You can also open this dialog by
running gnome-keybinding-properties.

Just click on the 'log out' entry and hit <backspace>. Once you disable
the shortcut it will take effect immediately.

Regards,

Daniel
