Ok, the keyboard here works now with umlauts but I still experience two flaws: - When you switch desktops, plex86 suffers from Modifier Madness. Example: In KDE, you switch desktops with Ctrl. plex86 will see that you press Ctrl but it will not see that you press F5 and then it will not see when you release Ctrl ! The same happens, when you switch to a desktop with plex86 but it less problematic: plex86 will see that you release Ctrl and it will silently wonder why it hasn't seen you pressing it :-) When you switch away from plex86, plex86 will think that Ctrl is still depressed and will react accordingly (typing "copy" will send ^C ^O ^P ^Y to the DOS prompt). The solution here is to check the modifiers as reported by X11 and generate artificial Key Up/Down events if the states of these keys are not what plex86 thinks. The quick workaround is to press each modifier key once when plex86 behaves strange. - The next problem is that the keyboard sometimes hangs, ie. no matter what I type, I cannot seem to get a prompt back. I guess that DOS is doing something (because I can press my Windows-Key and will see "xkeypress(): keysym ffec unhandled") but it's still very irritating. Any ideas what this could be ? -- ============================================== Sowatec AG, CH-8330 Pf�ffikon (ZH) Witzbergstr. 7, http://www.sowatec.com Tel: +41-(0)1-952 55 55 Fax: +41-(0)1-952 55 66 ---------------------------------------------- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ==============================================
