[SOLVED] Scrotwm and MOD4 key

hello everyone,

I'm using scrotwm daily and love it. It worked perfect until I did a pacman -Syu. Now MOD4 doesn't work anymore? Xev tells me that the keys work (Super_L and Super_R). Any idea?

best regards

Hi there,
No problem here after the last update round.
Do you -Syu daily? because I can't see what recent package possibly could break the Mod4 in Scrotwm.

Maybe some other application you have running somehow interfere with the Mod4 key?
And I guess you have checked the .scrotwm.conf file just in case too, and restarted X, although it's strange that xev reacts to the Super-keys if something actually where blocking the input.

Did this all, I guess it's something with the xorg.conf ? Strange things happen, I keep trying to fix it. Any other suggestions?

Ah, we really are kinda forced to use hal nowadays it seems - or probably soon the DeviceKit and whatever.
Thanks for posting the solution.
