I have an application that does not see Alt-key sequences when running under
VNC. It works fine under Exceed.
I used xev to see the KeyPress events when running under VNC and Exceed.
VNC
---
KeyPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x6000001,
root 0x25, subw 0x0, time 3343409110, (79,58), root:(84,891),
state 0x0, keycode 14 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
Exceed
------
KeyPress event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x800001,
root 0x2b, subw 0x0, time 23974, (101,78), root:(716,422),
state 0x0, keycode 63 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 characters: ""
The only difference seems to be in the keycode where VNC reports the left Alt
key as keycode 14 while Exceed sees it as keycode 63. First, is this a
difference that can make a difference and, second, what can I do about it?
Can I configure VNC so that the Alt key keycode is the same as it is under
Exceed? And why should they be different anyway?
Thanks!
