It always returns true, no matter which key combination I use. I tried with other key combinations, such as Ctrl+Shift+J, Ctrl+Alt+J or Ctrl+Alt+R, for instance. The only difference is that with the last one the following message is printed in the console:

Qt Code:
  1. X Error: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) 10
  2. Major opcode: 33 (X_GrabKey)
  3. Resource id: 0x5d

So Ctrl+Alt+R is already grabbed by another application but the former key combinations aren't and they still don't work. :-( I have openSUSE 10.3 with X.org 7.2 here but I've also tried in openSUSE 11.0 with X.org 7.3 and got the same results. Key grabbing works in my system, as I have Yakuake here and whenever I press F12 it opens as expected.
