[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 1088470] Re: Killing Gnome-Do resets shortcut & doesn't let Do launch at startup

[Bob Merhebi]

** Description changed:

  On several occasions I was forced to kill some applications including
  Gnome Do. After I kill & relaunch Gnome Do, the assigned shortcut is
  reset to nothing, but i get the main interface from which I could
  reassign the shortcut from the preferences menu.
  
  This last time, I was not able to get the window to reassign the
  shortcut! No matter how many times I try, Gnome Do doesn't launch
  (graphically); it is running in the background.
  
- I haven't tried to reboot the system this time since I've been working
- on something & do not wish to reboot.
+ The only way I found to circumvent this & launch the interface was to launch two instances from the terminal!
+ After I set the shorcut I would quit both & relaunch it as normal!
  
- How can I access the preferences?
+ There must be an easier way to access the preferences!
  
  Btw, I think it would be useful in such cases if Gnome Do had a cli
  interface or at least some options!
