Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xbindkeys
>From another computer, I have some definitions for xbindkeys (made with
xbindkeys-config). These key codes work correctly.
>From the config file for example:
#esword_split
"~/scripts/esword_split"
# m:0x1d + c:39
Control+Shift+Alt+Mod2 + s
will work and run the script I have made.
However, if you run
xbindkeys -k one gets this:
"NoCommand"
m:0x201d + c:39
Control+Shift+Alt+Mod2 + s
Notice the to different m: values. The one obtained with xbindkeys -k is
inaccurate. Hence, I can define no new keyboard commands.
In the working example above, if one comments out the m: line like this:
#esword_split
"~/scripts/esword_split"
# m:0x1d + c:39
Control+Shift+Alt+Mod2 + s
It breaks and won't work. Commenting out the more human readable line
like this:
#esword_split
"~/scripts/esword_split"
m:0x1d + c:39
# Control+Shift+Alt+Mod2 + s
Allows it to work.
Sadly, nothing is reading correctly with xbindkeys -k
This is a toshiba satellite A505-S6965 laptop.
Not sure to proceed from here.
