When I click Super+P it messes up my display settings (the monitors go black and after that their arrangement is reset to the default one).
I tried to find what the action is in Ubuntu, but running the following returns nothing:
gsettings list-keys org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings | while read key; do gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings $key; done | grep Super
What else may be mapped to Super+P and how can I find it?
You were close, but the setting is not where you searched. Instead:
gsettings list-recursively | grep "<Super>p"
reveals that <Super>p is defined under switch-monitor. By default, also the key 'XF86Display'is assigned to this function.
You can use dconf-editor to change the assignment, or use following commands:
To disable <Super>p and keep XF86Display:
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter.keybindings switch-monitor "['XF86Display']"
To disable all related shortcut keys:
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter.keybindings switch-monitor "['']"
To reset to the defaults:
gsettings reset org.gnome.mutter.keybindings switch-monitor
