Subject: Re: [FreeNX-kNX] keyboard mapping - msg#00049

List: freenx-knx

Date: Prev Next Index Thread: Prev Next Index
The problem appeared when xorg started to use evdev rules (used by evdevdriver) by default.But evdev and xf86 rules (used by kbd driver) aren't compatible. So the clientsends an evdev keycode but the xfree86 server don't understand. On nxagent 3.3.0-X (not sure about the version) they created a workaround thatconverts the evdev keycode into a xfree86 keycode. But this workaround is usedwhen the parameter "client=linux" is passed to the nxagent and the xorg on the  client is using evdev rule or using xfree86 rule and evdev layout.
FreeNX from svn doesn't passes the client parameter to nxagent so the workaround isnever used. Take a look the patch Mario Becroft sent, I am pretty sure I made it. If remember correctly the workaround for this problem on the freenx side is the"${client:+client=$client,}" part.
For my abnt2 keyboard this workaround don't work for every key. But the not working ones are not essential.
I hope this helpsRegarsShima

setxkbdmap doesn't help.

sigh.

I'd been hoping it would just get fixed - it is a regression as it
worked for a long time. can't remember which update broke it. :(
