           Summary: Win key binding lost after reboot
           Product: kcontrol
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcmaccessibility
        AssignedTo: pupeno at kde.org
        ReportedBy: gsasha at cs.technion.ac.il


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

I'm using the Win-key as a META modifier, to define some windows shortcuts based on the key (such as Win-1, Win-2 etc.).

To make the key to work as a modifier (instead of F13), I used KControl->Accessibility->KeyboardLayout->Alt/Win to choose the "Meta is mapped to the Win-keys". This works fine, but once the machine is rebooted, the binding is lost, and I have to go and select the option again.

In addition, it all is a bit confusing since the "Accessibility->"Keyboard Shortcuts"->"KDE Modifiers" shows that the "Win" KDE modifier is not bound to anything.
