Problem: I cannot get one feature working.

How do I make Super+W show open windows from all workspaces?

Background: I installed ubuntu 12.04.3 64-bit freshly today and performed all updates. I appears to be the same problem as detailed in this post: How do I make Super+W show open windows from all workspaces?

Though my circumstances are different.

The post regards 12.04.1, and the post says that the compiz fix would be incorporated in 12.04.2. I installed 12.04.3 this morning. My compiz version is 0.9.7.12

What I've Tried:

  1. I have tried using compiz-config-settings-manager (ccsm) and can verify that the keyboard short cut for super+w is correctly assigned to Windows from All Workspaces

  2. I attempted the workaround described at the linked post.

    • A. Add the PPA with sudo apt-add-repository ppa:bsantos/ppa.
    • B. Run sudo apt-get update .
    • C. Update Compiz with sudo apt-get install compiz . In part 'C' apt-get returns that compiz is fully up-to-date. and does not make any changes to the system.

I can verify these results on two of my systems: - Dell D620 (Ubuntu 32-bit) - System76 Lemur 4 (Ubuntu 64-bit)

I'd really love to get this feature working and would appreciate any assistance.
