Thanks Al.  That's shown me how badly broken my system now is!  Alt-F 
give me the broken dash.  I haven't re-assigned any quick keys on this 
system, so I decided to check.

None of the keyboard settings options - either going from 
system-settings, or from /usr/share/applications works.  All of them do 
nothing after a brief delay.  No crash or anything.

I looked at one of them called from the terminal, and it is evident that 
the present state of Wily on my machine is that a whole lot of the gnome 
libraries are, or need to be updated.  There have been a lot of updates 
just a little earlier today, so, although I think the actual bug is a 
valid one, I can't do a lot more until I see what the state of Wily is 
in a few days.  If I've got completely out of step, I'll re-install.

Regards,		Barry
