>Description:
Beryl does not load focus and keybinding settings correctly from a previously saved configuration file. If I uncheck "Click To Focus" and "Auto-Raise", this works for a while, but it stops working after beryl-manager is reloaded or if the X session is restarted. If I look at the settings, the two checkboxes are unchecked as they should. I have to check the boxes and then uncheck them again to get back the right focus behaviour.

Now the keybinding. I have the "Windows" key of my keyboard mapped to Super_L using the xmodmap command "keycode 115 = Super_L" that is loaded by my .xinitc script before the window manager. I have tested this mapping many times with xev and with keybinding in Xfce and it works fine. If I try to use this key for keybinding in Beryl, this works the first time, but again it stops working when I reload beryl-manager or when I restart X. To get it working again, I have to set the keybinding to something else and than set it back to what I want.

I use the exact same focus and keybinding settings on my Linux partition and I did not experienced these problems...

I have also tried to completely delete the beryl config files using "rm -r ~/.beryl*" and reconfigure all the settings, but it did not fix it...

I have sent an email on freebsd-x11@freebsd.org and other Beryl users are experiencing the same problem
