I have a very strange problem on my Ubuntu 11.10 desktop with Gnome-shell 3.3.2. The default shortcut to open the terminal, CTRL+ALT+T does not work. If I try to change the shortcut to another shortcut (just testing) it also doesn't work. Can anyone help me?

It looks like that the default terminal app is not there (not listed)... make a custom shortcut for gnome-terminal and assign CTRL+ALT+T to key combination to it and see if it works. If it does I'm right and leave it just as it is. If not post a comment ;)

Oh it is there in the Dconf, using Gnome-Shell 3.3.92 on Ubuntu 12.04Beta1 (my Ubuntu 11.10 messed up so I figured I'd go to Precise). So I confirm the problem persists... Mar 27, 2012 at 0:42

Running Ubuntu 12.04 Beta2 with gnome-shell 3.4.0 I have the same issue. Delecting the default shortcut and linking a new onw to
gnome-terminal
helped me to fix this. Should be reported on Launchpad, though. Apr 12, 2012 at 0:53
@vanjadjurdjevic 's post works, even in Ubuntu 12.04 (beta) with gnome-shell. You have to disable the standard keyboard shortcut, as it will not work, but if you make a new keyboard shortcut and assign it to CTRL+ALT+T It'll work!
Instead of using Ctrl + Alt + T as the shortcut, you can redefine Alt + T as the shortcut in the Settings>Keyboard>Launchers settings. It seems that it's a bug and may also there is a conflit. This works for me at least.
Check your system keyboard shortcuts:
Go to : System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcut Tab
Then you can disable any shortcut you want :)
