Using the Wondow Shortcuts of your keyboard :
You can configure KDE to use the window key . To do this , you will have to configure your X server using Xmodemap, to link keycodes for those extra keys to useful X functions . The first step involves creating a file Xmodmap in the home directory. Use a text editor , and add the following entries :
Keycode 115 = F13
Keycode 117 = F15
This is done assuming that you have the standard keyboard mapping. To check the actual codes for your keyboard layout, use the command xev. Then type the command, ‘xmodmap~/.Xmodmap’ . The result is that it will assign [F13] to the start key in the key board and [f15] to windows Key. Now open the KDE Control Center and go to Shortcut Key > Global Shortcut . Set[F13] to pop-up the system menu, and [f15] to windows operation menu
