	@OP: If you want to map it to "Windows" key, exec this in console: `gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/show_desktop --type string "Super_L"`. – whitequark Aug 23 '10 at 21:03
	Dang, I've been looking for this shortcut for ages, and I've already been using ALT+F2 for ages, I should've figured it out. – TuxRug Aug 24 '10 at 4:56
	I never knew this. Thanks! – Nighthawk Aug 25 '10 at 13:17
