Super-key is not working properly in GNOME

[gregorydk]

Normally the Super-key opens the Activities in GNOME but pressing the key does nothing. Using the key in combination with another key does work.

The keyboard experiencing the issue is a Lenovo Professional Wireless.

Got the same problem, showkey is showing 135 key code along side with 123 to be pressed.

Same here. Did you find any solution how to fix this, guys ?

Untested, but you can try https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/377830/linux-hid-driver-for-primax-wireless-keyboards/#comment823354_403285

And adapted from this driver there is https://github.com/fabianbl/lenovo_professional_wireless_keyboard

@gregorydk the fork of fabianbl works perfectly ! Thank you very much.
I also created a pull request for the problem you described in the first comment (it is working)

The last one thing that I observed is slow reaction to left ALT key. I use it quite often in combination with TAB (alt + tab) for switching between windows and now when I press alt and tab, tab is delivered sooner than alt so it inserts tab character instead ... I have no idea why and if it is caused by this "hackish solution" or something else. When I try to switch windows by pressing SUPER key + TAB, it works normally, fast.
