I'm having some issues with a Japanese keyboard. I got it running in Windows and I know how to use it now. In Linux, Xfree86 4.2.0, Mandrake 8.2, I have the following lines for the keyboard:
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard1" Driver "Keyboard" Option "AutoRepeat" "250 30" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "jp106" Option "XkbLayout" "jp" EndSection I have a Java application that runs directly in X. In it I display the keycode pressed and the String of what Java assigned to that keycode. In windows it works fine, printing "Hiragana", "Katakana", "Convert", "No Convert". In X it does not. 3 of the keys do not respond in anyway, in Java, or in any other windowing environment. Namely the han/zen key, Shift-JIS key, Katakana/Hiragana/Romanji key. Now under the English layout, the han/zen key is the `/~ key, and I get a code in Java when in the English layout. But for Japanese I don't. In the logs I see (==) Keyboard: CustomKeycode disabled In /etc/sysconfig/keyboard I have: KBCHARSET=jisx0208 KEYTABLE=jp106 It confuses me more that in windows it says 106/109 key, in X it is 106, could these 3 keys be those missing keys? Is there a jp109? What can I do to get the app to recognize these standard Japanese keys? It is even more confusing because I did the entire install in Japanese, and it still doesn't work. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
