Sorry if this is a re-post of the problem.

I am using RedHat 9 + XFree4.3.0-2 + KDE 3.1-13 shipped with RH9.

    After upgrading my system (RedHat 8.0) to RedHat9. Everythings work fine
without problem except that KDE misinterpret the symbols of my thai keyboard
when pressing CTRL key. For example, if I press "Ctrl-c" in thai layout
mode. It interprete the key as "Ctrl-Thai_saraae". The problem is that I can
not use any short cut key (Ctrl, Alt) when the layout is thai because it
interprete all the key to thai key. At first, I taught that this problem
comes from KDE or kxkb module. But it seems that the problem comes directly
from xkb itself. The problem still occur in either GNOME, Blackbox,
Windowmaker when I set the keyboard map to thai using "setxkbmap -rules
xfree86 -model pc105 -layout "th"". However, if I set the keyboard map for
two layout, "setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model pc105 -layout "us,th" -option
"grp:alt_shift_toggle", the problem goes away (Ctrl-c is Ctrl-c now in both
us and th layout). Swapping us,th to th,us and the problem occurs again. It
seems that this problem also occur in other layout (I tested the tml,us and
it interprete Ctrl-c as Ctrl-ua80 something). Is this the normal behavior of
XFree4.3 or is this the bug? If this is normal, how could I config the thai
layout to use latin charactor instead of thai charactor when pressing CTRL
or ALT?
