Hey
I've been wondering for a while what is the Meta Key in KDE 4 by default. For instance, I'm trying to activate a Track Mouse desktop effect found under System Settings->Desktop Effects->All Effects. The settings window for this effect says: Hold Ctrl+Meta keys to see where the mouse cursor is.
Many desktop effects require a Meta Key but what it is bind to?

That usually refers to the windows key on most standard keyboards.

I demoted a left Win key to do the dirty job of switching keyboard layouts in X session for a Linux user. Are you sure this is a Win key that KDE means by a meta key? Can another key be assigned the role of meta key for KDE keyboard shortcuts?

It's beyond me. I've tried but I don't really what I could possibly use instead of an already taken Left Win key. Could anyone please break it down like for a toddler how to assign a new meta key?
