Go to System Settings>Keyboard Choose shortcuts and custom shortcut and press the + button The command to run is gnome-system-monitor

After creating the shortcut, click disabled then pressctnl+shift+esc to set the new accelerator.

Thank you, that worked excellently, out of curiosity is there a place with all the commands? – Boi Aug 31 '12 at 10:30
    
There's no good list as far as I know. The other place to set hotkeys, or see what keyboard commands there are is to use the compizconfig settings manager (ccsm; install with apt-get or software manager). There are a bunch of plugins that you can tweak. To see what the application is that you want to run, look in /usr/share/applications for the .desktop file and look at their properties for the command line to run. – Ian B. Aug 31 '12 at 14:03
