It's me again and again with a problem with awesome.
As the topic says I can't set a client into floating state.
In my rc.lua I have the default key binding
clientkeys = awful.util.table.join(
awful.key({ modkey, "Control" }, "space", awful.client.floating.toggle )
)
but it has no effect.

Is that the only keybind you have inside clientkeys = awful.util.table.join? The default rc.lua has a comma after the first parenthesis.
clientkeys = awful.util.table.join(
awful.key({ modkey, }, "f", function (c) c.fullscreen = not c.fullscreen end),
awful.key({ modkey, "Shift" }, "c", function (c) c:kill() end),
awful.key({ modkey, "Control" }, "space", awful.client.floating.toggle ),
etc...
Also did you remember to restart awesome after changing rc.lua? Anyways the default keybind works fine for me.

Works fine for me too. Do you use awesome or awesome-git?

I have all the entries that come with the rc.lua in /etc/xdg/awesome and this is the only one that doesn't work (the comma was missed by the copy/paste).
I'm using the awesome version form AUR (not the git version).

I still don't know why this doesn't work.
Here's my complete rc.lua - maybe something interferes?

Have you tried using an unmodified rc.lua? If it works there, then it is probably with your config.
