Mads,
As you have stated, kbd_* were the cause of the problem (Windows RDP
client not mapping scancode 0x7d correctly to vk_code OEM_5). Thanks
for pointing this out.
My colleague checked the values for kbd_* in rdesktop and by changing
these values in FreeRDP, pressing the "\|" keycap resulted in "\" being
shown on the RDP server (as it should). Also confirmed with YAMY that
the RDP server received scancode "0x7D" (as it should) and Windows
mapped this to vk_code "OEM_5" (as it should).
We're in the process of checking other keycaps but in the meantime, I
would like to discuss how we should merge these changes into the main
source.
Attached is the patch against the current source. We needed a quick way
to figure out the problem and therefore it cannot be applied to the
source. If you did, it would most likely break the US keyboard layout.
So how should we merge these changes to the main source?
Regards,
Seiji Tokunaga
