Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rdesktop
I found rdesktop with Ubuntu frustrating. Caps-lock doesn't work and/or
the numberpad is broken.
There is a patch applied by the Ubuntu source that differs from
rdesktop.sourceforge.net somehow.
Ubuntu rdesktop has a -y switch which I find necessary to get caps-lock
to work with Ubuntu. This however breaks the number pad.
I compiled rdesktop.sourceforge.net source and this issue dissappeared.
Started hunting for the culprit, but that took much more energy than
installing the rdesktop binary I compiled.
However, every time I setup a new workstation this issue becomes another
task. Argh...
I doubt I'm the only one that's had to deal with this issue. Can we
somehow revert to rdesktop source to rdesktop source?
Thank You
