Today I've looked into infamous kdrive-1.4 problem.
For those who doesn't know - kdrive starting from version 1.4 doesn't
ship any default keyboard mapping, that renders keyboards (both virtual
and hardware) unusable. And because 1.4 is the default version in .dev,
we have no luck :(
Right, that was already known
After some looking into /etc/X11/ on target machine and into
packages/xserver-common recipe in OE, I found that there is already a
workaround for that - only it's disabled for all machines, which have
their own xmodmap additions (like mapping for app buttons on
keyboardless devices, etc).
Ah, Graeme and I didn't look at that, we 'fixed' keymaps for the devices
we were working on.
Koen, what was the motivation behind that kdrive-1.4-fixes-fix.patch ?
I'm not sure, since I left out the why in the commit[1], IIRC it breaks
things when you have an external (e.g. USB) keyboard. Placing it outside
the case statement apparently broke things.
Someone should see if xkeyboard-config[2] fixes the keymap issues
regards,
Koen
