Custom keyboard shotcuts: Edit / adding new ones
Last modified: 2011-04-27 22:12:50 UTC
It is not possible to edit custom keyboard shortcuts. There are 4 entries in the list. Editing one the entry disappears. Also adding new entries does not work. After entering program name and command nothing happens.
I can confirm this issue. It happens to me in 3 machines, one of them x86_64, and the other two i686. Using Archlinux in all of them.

May be not so "fixed" Now, (using the 3.0.1.1 version) I can set a shortcut, and it not dissappears, but, for example, trying to set the screenshot shortcut to "gnome-screenshot", mutter still throws a message saying "no command 33 has been defined" And although the four entries in the list that were named "Unknown Action" and whose key was "Disabled", can be edited or deleted, as soon as system settings is reopened, they reappear.

Any other random junk showing up in the keyboard shortcuts is not the keyboard shortcuts' code's responsibility. Check in /usr/share/gnome-control-center/keybindings/ for which file provides that, and check which package provides it. File separate bugs about it.
Sorry, but I'm not sure about it: Inside /usr/share/gnome-control-center-keybindings/ there are only the .xml files for the four predefined sections (multimedia, system, launchers and accessibility) which content is fine, but these "random junk" appears under the "Custom shortcuts" section, even if I've deleted them previously, and even using a complete new user with an empty home. (It may be deliverated, but since it looks to me a little bit strange, and I don't know if it is supposerd to appear, I prefer to report.)
I can confirm that this fixes the keyboard shortcuts issue. Installed on opensuse 11.4 - Gnome 3.0 from STABLE build.
