keyboard problem : upper numeric keys don' t work

2006-08-23 Thread cirrus75


   Hello all!

   Xfree runs OK but upper numeric keys (not num keypad) do not work 
well. Also TAB and BACKSPACE seem not to work well too. My keyboard map 
seems to be OK because all other keys are OK.


   I had a similar problem with an PC emulator called QEMU. So, I 
beleive this is a problem of some Windows API. I fixed QEMU problem 
telling it to use directx instead of windib. I could not found any 
way to fix this on Xfree, and I don't even know if Xfree uses windib. 
Numeric keys shows:


1 = h
2 = ,
3 = 0~  (yes, 2 caracters)
4 = ,

5 to 0 nothing appears.

any ideas ?

thanks,
Alex
