Since many years I use midnight commander (mc) on the command line as a file manager and editor. The latest versions of Ubuntu Desktop capture the F10 function key preventing the use of F10 to close midnight commander. You have to use the mouse to close midnight commander which kinda defeats the purpose of using the command line. Here is how I changed the default behavior of F10:
With gconf-editor delete or change the following key to something other then F10: /apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/panel_first_menu
Using the F10 key to close midnight commander now works as it is supposed to IMHO.


















Thank you!

The same thing here. Couldn't get rid of this annoyance, however.
