I recently I installed Debian 7 in my laptop. I used to use Ctrl+Alt shortcut all the time in Windows, but in Debian 7 I can only use AltGr.



So, I was trying to bind AltGr to Ctrl+Alt without success. First I installed AutoKey but then I didn't know how to use it. Then I installed xbindkeys and tried doing some configuration to get the binding but it didn't work. And I tried more and more things...



At this point I don't know what to do.



AltGr makes me work slowly. There is any way to do the binding without getting head cancer?

  • Well I must be missing something. I put in my ~/.xbindkeysrc "xdotool key Ctrl+Alt" Alt+Mod2 + Alt_Rand it does not work. If you find a solution, please post it. :)

    I already solved it. The problem was that I didn know how to use xbindkeys because I'm a linux noob but I finally got it. I added some commands toxbindkeysrc like you said.

After some research I learned how to use xbindkeys. I only had to add the following commands to the xbindkeysrc file placed in my personal folder:



# LeftBracket
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "[""
Control+Alt + dead_grave | m:0xc + c:34

# RightBracket
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "]""
Control+Alt + plus | m:0xc + c:35

# LeftKey
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text """
Control+Alt + dead_acute ""
Control+Alt + ccedilla | m:0xc + c:51

# Pipe
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "|""
Control+Alt+Mod2 + 1 | m:0x1c + c:10

# AtSign
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "@""
Control+Alt+Mod2 + 2 | m:0x1c + c:11

# Hash
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "#""
Control+Alt+Mod2 + 3 | m:0x1c + c:12

# Virgulilla (Spanish keyboard)
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "~""
Control+Alt+Mod2 + 4 | m:0x1c + c:13

# Slash
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text """
Control+Alt+Mod2 + masculine | m:0x1c + c:49


After that I added xbindkeys to gnome-session-properties to run xbindkeys at startup.
This way I can use Ctrl+Alt like I used to.
