change compiz shortkeys

Post by mrsfrog »

Hi All,

new to Mint, but not to linux, just swapped from ubuntu about 10 min ago as they made the new version all uncustomizable (is that a word?). I'm not a computer person, I really only got onto linux cause I don't like Bill Gates and I like to have power of my stuff and change it to my liking.

Working just like normal for now, but I did run into the problem that the shortkey for making the screen negative is the same as for opening the sound menu in the bar, they are both Super+m. I really like to use negative, so how do I fix this? I can't seem to change the shortcuts in compiz and the general shortcuts in preferences doesn't let me change the one for sound.
Is there a work-around, or another place I can change the shortkeys?

Thanks

Compiz settings are configured in the CompizConfig Settings Manager (ccsm in a Alt+F2 Run box)

ah, yeah, by left-clicking on it. geez I feel stupid now :oops:

Still, I changed the shortkey, but haven't gotten it to work yet. I guess I need to find the golden combination that isn't used for anything else?
