Hi all,
I'm using....sorry...a old version of ion.
I've a problem, I don't knwon if it's come from my old version or it's
because my config is not complete.
My version of ION is 3rc-20070927 on FreeBSD.
My problem is with rdesktop :
Sometime I need rdesktop to connect on a windows server.
After rdesktop is launch I can not use the short-key to change
workplace (only the workplace where run rdesktop). I need to click
on the top of the workplace, after that i can use short-key.
of course that's not big problem. But if you can tell me how can I fix
it.
Thanks for your help ?
Someone tell me the solution (thanks to him).
In fact it's rdesktop to grab the keyboard.
So to avoid this problem :
rdesktop -K instead rdesktop
regards.
I haven't fully committed to Ion yet, but it always annoyed me that
rdesktop did this. It was surprisingly easy to add a keyboard shortcut to
get rdesktop to release the keyboard. The attached patch is against
rdesktop-1.6.0.
I chose Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Enter as the key to perform the "un-grab". (Mainly
because it's very unlikely I'd ever use that in Windows, but also because
there was already a shortcut for Ctrl+Alt+Enter.)
Best,
Ben
