Try run xbindkeys if you don't get it to work.

some additions:
i'm using gentoo amd64, xfce-base/xfce4 version 4.2.3.2, xfce-base/xfce4-session version 4.2.3
According to the xfce4 documentation (http://www.xfce.org/documentation/docs-4.2/xfwm4.html) i have to run xfwm4 --daemon in the background.

phonc@ground0 ~ $ xfwm4 --daemon
** (xfwm4:8436): WARNING **: Another Window Manager is already running
phonc@ground0 ~ $ ps -A | grep xf
8414 ? 00:00:00 xfce4-session
8421 ? 00:00:01 xfce-mcs-manage
8428 ? 00:00:03 xfce4-panel
8434 ? 00:00:03 xfdesktop

Does my configuration has no effect because of running xfce4 session? If so, why is this window settings menu in my menu dialog? And how can i configure my keyboard bindings using xfce4 session? If this is not possible, how to change to a non session xfce4?

any advise would be appreciated

Hi all,
last weekend i switched to xfce4, because i wanted to run Xgl and fluxbox my former displaymanager doesn't support Xgl. Xgl works very well and now i'm about customizing xfce. I want to use the special keys of my keyboard (e.g. mute sound etc).
First i got the appropriate keycodes by using xev. Then created a $HOME/.Xmodmap file and allocated the keycodes to F* - buttons (e.g. F13...). Then i did the graphical way for allocating these buttons to commands.
Menu
--> Settings
--> Window Manager Settings
--> Keyboard Tab
After creating a new keyboard profile i customized this profile and activated it. But it don't work :-|

*edit:
if i change the focus model in the focus tab of the window manager settings it has also no effect :? it seems like the window manager settings/preferences are totaly ignored...
