    Setting <Super> Key to windows key

    Hey, just had to install Gutsy (with all its horrid problems) due to sudden issues with the Feisty install thanks to the hdd with the startup on it beginning to die.

    How does one get to that window with all the diff KDE bits in it where one can set the Win key to Super instead of mod4?

    Also, anyone figured how to run windows full screen over dual monitors after update? works fine at first install, then after a few updates, it splits the screen to 2 columns which is irritating if you are wanting to wrap things to both screens simultaneously.

    Thanks in advance,

    JJ

    I'm not certain, but I think you're looking for either "Keyboard Layout" or "Keyboard Shortcuts" in the "Regional & Accessories" section of Kcontrol. So, Alt-F2 "kcontrol" and then choose "Regional & Accessories" should take you where you want to be.

    Screen splitting -- I dunno, I make do with only 1. I see some interesting possibilities under "Peripherals > Monitor & Display" within the Kcontrol Center.

      kcontrol, thats the one I wanted, thanks

      Sorted the screen splitting. For some reason, during the update, Xinerama had switched itself off, so I jsut replaced the 0 with 1 in Xorg.conf and sorted

      Thanks for your help
