Package: fvwm
Version: 1:2.5.26-1
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
This is not a bug in FVWM but in the system that calls it.
It only appears at the first start reproduceable by calling
"/etc/init.d/kdm restart".
just for a test case this is the fvwm configfile ~/.fvwm/config:
"Key y A M Exec exec xeyes"
xorg.conf section:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
The de (german) qwertz keyboard works and all applications get the
right keycode. "z" on the keyboard gives a "z" when you hit
it, "y"-key a "y", and so on.
But now it gets strange: If I hit "Alt+y" nothing happens. But
if I hit "Alt+z" xeyes shows up. But if numlock is activated, even
"Alt+z" doesn't work.
Here is the same problem discussed:
