Super Key in Linux?

Hey guys,
I'm running CrunchBang Linux and the 'Super Key' doesn't work. It's meant to be the 'Windows' key as far as I know but it does not work.
Any way to make it work?
Thanks!

 

Any response to this ?
What is the superkey on the AAO ?

I am trying to get the negatove screen command to work (should be Superkey+M) but i cant figure out what is the super key ?

I found out that it was the 'Windows' key.
It wasn't working initially but all of a sudden it started working =S

 

I read the 'windows' key being indicated as the key with the house on it , Acer keyboard, bottom left. But i found that key acts as a 'return-to-desktop' shortcut when ever i press it, making it impossible to use as a combination key (eg. home key+M ).

Are you saying use the '=' key with the 's' key when you write =s is the superkey - cant say it's doing anything for me

If anyone can help - take a look at the short cuts indicated in the > advanced drop down menu > settings > CompizConfig settings manager > negative (or indeed any of the filters in CompizConfig) > actions > general tab > under 'key' .....and see...... that the hot keys require the super key+ M or N (in the case of the negative filter) and tell me how i can get this negative filter working because i cant for the life of me figure it out.

Much obliged to anybody....thnx v. v.
