Win Key on Ubuntu 10.04 open Applications menu

[fss007]

- open terminal and type gconf-editor
- apps -> metacity -> global_keybinding and look for panel_main_menu
- right click and edit, change value to "Super_L" without the quote.

and That's it!

Or you could just run this in the terminal:


gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/panel_main_menu --type string "Super_L"

On my laptop: Alt-Fn-F1
On my PC: Alt-F1

That brings up the application menu just fine.
