Window Switching in Ubuntu
In both Windows and Ubuntu Linux you can switch active windows by pressing control (ctl) and tab. However on Windows if you press ctl-alt after pressing ctl-tab the previously active window will stay in the foreground. I find this very useful so it really bugs me that I haven't found a way to do this in Ubuntu. I've had a look at the keyboard mappings for window switching and there isn't a space for reverting to the previously active window. If anyone knows how to do this please let me know!

Can't you alt-shift-tab? I can't be bothered to boot into windows and confirm, but it works on the mac, and from memory i used to do this in windows.
Hi Hamish, could you send your e-mail address to me again please.
