Hi, At some point over the last year, the behaviour of the compose key on my Gentoo-based X setup changed.
Previously I could do this: Press compose key Press shift Press # (UK keyboard: shift + # = ~) Release # Release shift Release compose Press n That would give me the character ñ Something changed (not sure what or when) and now the above sequence no longer works. It has to be adjusted so that the compose key is released before pressing any further characters in the sequence: Press compose key Release compose key Press shift Press # Release # Release shift Press n Release n I find that this makes typing considerably harder and I often have to retry 3 or 4 times until I get what I wanted. My Fedora 11 system still has the old behaviour where I can start the keypresses before releasing the compose key, but I wouldn't be surprised if this would change in an F12 update. I'm using the evdev on both setups. Any hints? Thanks, Daniel _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
