As much as I tried to figure this out I simply cannot get this to work out the way that I want it to.

Now the usual commands in the terminal command line would be gnome-control-center now normally this command doesn't like to work for me unless I add sudo in front of it. such as: sudo gnome-control-center; which prompts me for the usual password, and after which it works like magic.

But what I would really like to know is what the title has it as. What is the keyboard shortcut command to launch the gnome-control-center. Or as the window its self has it: "system settings."

I hope this question isn't terribly convoluted. Especially in spite of all the research I did to come up with nothing any way.

  • You can add custom shortcut for gnome-control-center by opening Keyboard-->shortcuts-->custom shortcuts--> +,

  • A new dialog box will be opened.Type settings in the name field and type gnome-control-center in the command filed.

  • By default it was disabled,right-click on the disabled shows a new accelerator.Now press the key combinations in the keyboard.

  • Now pressed key combinations will be assigned.

  • Logout and login back to take effect.

  • Ahh ok so I did end up having the correct command entered in. I just didn't know I had to log out then back in. thanks for the expedient help with this matter. Also was I wrong while putting the command in the "<>' when referencing the command as a command its self?
