Here the win key works, but not always. Sometimes I log in and it just works
as it should, and sometimes it doesn't.
If it doesn't, I can log off and log in again till it works. Or I can change
the keyboard layout in Control Center for any other keyboard and then set it
back to the correct one a few times till it works. Once it works, it remains
working as long as I'm logged in.
No idea about what's causing that. I'm using Fedora Core 5 and KDE 3.5.4 from
kde-redhat. My keyboard is ABNT2 (brazilian). It worked before, when I was
using Fedora Core 4, but too many packages have changed from FC4 to FC5 and I
don't know where exactly is the problem.
One thing that works is to add the line:
Option "XkbOptions" "altwin:meta_win"
to your xorg.conf. But then, this has the collateral effect of Alt GR (the
right ALT key) not working as it should. I mean, when I add this line the win
key always work, but I can't use Alt GR to access the special symbols that
there are in some of my keyboard keys (some keys have a third character
printed on them, which should be accessible using Alt GR).
Till now, I didn't manage to get win key and Alt GR working at the same time.
As far as I now, despite the erratic behavior of KDE where sometimes the win
key works and sometimes it doesn't, this is a X configuration problem. I've
read reports from Gnome users with the same problem.
