Screen flickers in response to P, can't bind it to anything

Question

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 on ThinkPad Edge 11" and no matter what X session or wm I use, P makes widgets blank out for a fraction of a second. After a quick search through gconf and XF86 symbol tables I can't find any place where it could be bound. I believe it may have something to do with low-level support for Win+P switching video outputs on Windows. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

If you are lazy just paste this on terminal:

gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/xrandr/active False

The Super+P press is handled by gnome-settings-daemon.

Using gconf-editor, find the following conf key:

/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/xrandr/active

and set it to false (not checked). The change should be effective immediately after the edit.
