Default Alt+F2 run dialog shortcut not working

Post by Nick Payne »

On my Mint 14 amd64 installation, the default Cinnamon keyboard binding of Alt+F2 for the run dialog doesn't work. It shows in keyboard settings as Alt+F2, but pressing that combination does nothing. However, if I edit that keyboard binding and press the Alt+F2 combination, then the binding now shows as being Alt-XF86Launch6, and pressing Alt+F2 now launches the run dialog. The keyboard I'm using is a Moshi Luna US layout.

For me, ALT-F2 launches the run dialog, but when I type in a command in it it does nothing. I'm using mint 13.
