When I press the right super key + P, gnome-shell switchtes between different display settings (how my monitors are arranged and what there resoluiton is). Sometimes I press the combination accidentally which is really annoying.

I looked through the gnome keybaord settings, and there are all kind of shortcuts. But this one I can not find.

Where is it located and how can I disable it?

I suggest you to try this (it works for me):

Go in the dconf-editor via the command "dconf-editor" in a terminal, then go at:

/org/gnome/mutter/keybindings/switch-monitor

and disable "use default value" and delete:

'<Super>p',

I don't usually use gnome (I installed Ubuntu and just use unity), but when I used gnome I set custom shortcuts, and I've done some reading around to check. Some OSs may need dconf instead of gconf.

The answer here shows how to change keyboard shortcuts using gconf-editor. You need to select the unwanted shortcut in gnome tweak-tools or gconf-editor and press backspace to clear it.

Alternative methods are given here and here, the questions are on askubuntu, but they're gnome specific questions.

    Well, the solution was in one of your [links](/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys): /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/video-out has to be set to nothing in dconf-editor – Nathan Jun 11 '15 at 12:14
