Hi,
I'm come back with a new problem...
I'm a keyboard's user(I hate mouse,too slow...),and i want to use Hotkeys and Keyboard's shortcut with XFCE, but the Windows key isn't recognize by the system?Just as Super_L,or something else.
I tried with changing xmodmap but nothing change in the system...
So if you have some informations or "solutions" to resolve my problem...

On my Computer the Windowskey ist called "Mod4".
So you can create a hotkey using "Mod4+x" for example ...

This is solved when you update to gtk 2.10. Sometimes you can also edit the files by hand with Mod4 like Edgar already said.

You can try using Xmodmap to define a code for the windows key.
