Blender ALT conflict [Solved]

Hi, guys. Porteus is awesome, however Blender doesn't fit well with the global shortcuts. It could be a nice feature to have the global ALT combinations disabled when pressing it together with SUPER on LXDE, so I could use ALT for Blender. I'll try to fix it by myself, but if you already have a solution for that, feel free to post it here!

Okay, this is my temporary solution. I replaced ALT with SUPER:
1. Open the file "/home/guest/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml" using Leafpad.
2. Use replace to replace "A-" with "W-" and check "Match case" and "Replace all at once"
3. Save and ALT + CTRL + Backspace to restart LXDE.

Nothing special :) . However I'm having no problem with the new key-configuration, so I might add [Solved] and change the topic name to "Blender ALT conflict", since this could only be for Blender users from interest. Thank you for making such a powerful OS! The modules are so incredible, how is it even possible that they're so compressed and yet so fast. I've got so many powerful software installed (Blender, Gimp, VLC, nVidia, etc.) and yet only 204.2 MB in my modules folder. I mean, if I had to extract blender it would just take that size and yet it has only 65.9 MB as a module. Porteus just won my heart for ever.

Also, if you can't copy content inside the Blender interface, clearing the clipboard history fixes this. You'll find the "Clipboard Manager" in system tray.
