           Summary: The key you just pressed isn't supported by Qt
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mdb at cs.unm.edu


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When trying to assign the WWW key to a keyboard shortcut the message: "The key
you just pressed isn't supported by Qt" is displayed

I guess this is more of a Qt (both 4.4 and 4.5rc) problem, however it occurs in
the KDE control center.
When trying to assign a function to the multimedia keys of my keyboard, in one
case a requester occurs telling me that "this key isn't supported by Qt". All
other multimedia keys work as expected.

xev, however, definitely shows this key as supported:

KeyPress event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001,
    root 0x1a6, subw 0x0, time 7298993, (112,10), root:(117,35),
    state 0x10, keycode 178 (keysym 0x1008ff2e, XF86WWW), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001,
    root 0x1a6, subw 0x0, time 7299054, (112,10), root:(117,35),
    state 0x10, keycode 178 (keysym 0x1008ff2e, XF86WWW), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

As XF86WWW seems like a rather standard multimedia key, this seems to be some
defective behaviour of Qt?!?


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start KDE control center
2. assign input action to XF86wWW-key
