Re: How to free key combination ?

Another way might be to make a backup copy of "~/.icewm/preferences". Then make changes to the key combinations that effect your application.

After you are done make changes either restart icewm or exit and come back in. You might find that this works just fine for what you are trying to do. I have made changes in this file and it works for me.

I hope this helps you!

Hello J__rg,

Thanks for your attention. I have found the system generated keyname
with xev command. With that key combination everything is running well.
You can find it in my latest tutorial at

wish you a nice time.
