Installed Ubuntu 12.04 64b on a new machine, installed Gnome Classic. I started setting up keyboard shortcuts and almost went crazy - I can’t assign Super + L to Lock Screen. All other commands work, for example, I can assign Super + L to Start Terminal, I can assign Ctrl + Alt + L to Lock Screen, but any combination with Super is not assigned to Lock Screen.

Compiz is not running - No effects mode is being used.

I don't even know where to look.

System -> Options -> Keyboard shortcuts.
Desktop -> Lock Screen.
I press Super+L, I get Mod4+L.
Everything works, Ubuntu 11.04 (yes, I understand that you have 12.04)

strange. I have super + l by default locks the screen, nothing needed to be configured.

Usually this happens due to the keyboard or motherboard. Try this combination with another keyboard (probably won't help). I encountered this at my work, some combinations also do not work, for example, ~ works like Ctrl + ~, and Ctrl + ~ does not work at all, and it is under 12.04. Until I found an explanation, I hope someone will tell you.
