most Logitech keyboards have function keys and by pressing the FN button and one of F1 to F12 they perform some specific function.

In Windows, for example with "SetPoint", you can change their functionality. As an example :

setpoint screen

I'm not talking about changing shortcuts. some of these function keys (common keys like Home, email, etc..) are known in Ubuntu. for example ubuntu known FN + F1 as HomePage, but some special function keys like [in my case] Flip, Show Desktop and other functions that designed for windows, known as combination of Super with another key. for example ubuntu known [in my case] FN + F6, that represent show desktop, as Super + D.

The question is "How could I define them in ubuntu as a new key?" Is it possible?

P.S:

  1. I read related questions and their answers, but I didn't get my answer.
  2. I emphasize that I'm not talking about keyboard shortcuts and I'm actually talking about defining a new keyboard key type
  3. And sorry for my bad english xD

What makes me feel good in Linux is customization. I've recently tested some great themes for Gnome Shell. They're really great, but sometimes I don't like some part of them. I looked into the files and found out that the themes are CSS-based. I know CSS, but I don't which classes or IDs refer to which parts of the screen.

Is there any reference or guide for theming Gnome Shell? (not GTK3)

The VPN Server gave me an exe file - connection manager - to connect to the server. Instead, I created a pptp vpn connection under nm-applet, entering only Host, Username & password. Later I figured out there were more options that needed to be set. I extracted the .exe file contents, and found a .cms file with some options that looked relevant, but I didn't know how to set them under Ubuntu.

Here is the file content http://pastebin.com/FmgkFBcS

Every time I login into my desktop, pidgin start behind, and sometimes it's annoying me - e.g. when I'm not connected to Internet or when I don't want to be on-line - I check startup application list and there's no pidgin listed.

another thing that is very annoying is hiding window feature or what ever it called.
assume that you're using MusicTracker plug-in, your status is Busy and you're chatting with someone. when music change, status will change, and then buddy-list will disappear and chat window will minimize. Buddy-list is not important but minimizing chat window when you're chatting is annoying, Is there any way to make pidgin stop that?

Simplest Debian Packaging Guide?

There are several tarballs (e.g. Firefox, Eclipse, Zend Studio and ...) that have executable files in them, that we can extract and run. but this executable will be available only for the user that extracts it.

If we want to make it available for all users we should move it to some location like /usr/share, /usr/local/share/, /opt/, ... and give appropriate permissions, make an executable file in /usr/bin/ and so on...

I want to make a deb installer file that does them all!
How to do it?
