How to prevent ubuntu catch ALT key?
Thank you~
Disabling the Alt key from showing the HUD:
-
Install CCSM with
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
-
Start it from the Dash or by typing
ccsm
from the terminal. -
Type "Unity" in the filter box on the left, and click on the Ubuntu Unity Plugin:
-
Click on the
<Alt>
button the red arrow points to, and then uncheck the Enabled box. Click OK and close CCSM -- the Alt shortcut is now disabled. -
If you no longer need CCSM, please consider uninstalling it.
