n810 configuration

Hello!

I use my N810 almost exclusively to run screen and emacs (so I can use
org-mode) within screen. Works like a charm. The only problem I have
currently is that when I try to hit Control-e (to go to end of line in
Emacs), the window system steals this key binding and initiates a file
search. Two simple questions: (1) where are global key bindings
defined and (2) how can I remove this particularly key binding?

I've had a look at various config files but basically haven't found
anything useful. I did find ~/.config/keybindings.rc but this has
only a few bindings, none of which interferes with my normal use.

Thanks,
eric

gconf

gconftool -s /apps/osso/keybindings/global/osso-global-search --type string '<ctrl><shift>e'

Many thanks! Missed this entirely.

Well, yes, but I meant in which file! But this was indeed enough for
me to find it in /etc/gconf/schemas/.

Worked! Thanks again.

Can you safely edit gconf storage files while gconfd is running (and
probably has the setting cached)? I'd be afraid to do that.

Technically, that's only the default setting; your customized value, if
any, is stored somewhere under ~/.gconf/
