Description RAdams 2007-01-10 04:27:24 UTC
What were you doing when the application crashed?
I was typing an accelerator into the Keyboard trigger setting for focus selection. I'm using a Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard, and was attempting a combo using the Super key. Note that my Super key usually captures as SUPER-L, not SUPER. I've set this up before with no crashes. I don't know why it received "None" for the string.

Additional information: I'm using the SVN Beryl, and I think it's bulloxed up my Super Key. That may be why Deskbar had such a hard time. It doesn't seem to work anywhere except in the Keyboard Shortcuts control panel.

Can anyone with Beryl and a keyboard like mine !confirm?
