Linux - Fedora 14 and Gnome Xrdp - 0.5.0 (installed by yum) And I also pulled down the latest xrdp source (it says 0.6.0) with the same results.
As I was trying to determine if this would be the best way for others in our group to access this environment in this way, and now I am not able to devote additional time to it. Since the xrdp solution was running an Xvnc server, I have moved on to just using vnc thinking that maybe it is the rdp protocol that is getting in the way. While it is much more difficult to get a vnc client in our environment (which is why I didn't go there first), the testing that I have done with it over the past day shows no sign of this keystroke issue. Essentially, it is the same setup, but using a vnc client instead of a rdp client. So, unfortunately, due to time constraints I will have to select vnc in this case. -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Jansen [mailto:ajal...@t-online.de] Sent: Monday, July 25, 2011 5:18 PM To: xrdp-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Jensen, Gregg W Subject: Re: [Xrdp-devel] delay/timing with shift key combinations Hi Gregg, that souds strange and as we had some keyboard issues (especially with german keyboards ;-) ) some times ago, I've just tried to reproduce your error but with no success. Testenviroment: ** Server: xrdp lastest version compiled from https://github.com/FreeRDP/xrdp.git running on AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual core under Gentoo (2.6.38-gentoo-r6) x86_64. ** Client: mstsc 6.0.6001 running on a Windows XP SP3 Machine (Pentium 4) ** Connection: Server and client are connected through an 100MBit-SOHO-Switch (HomeOffice) ** Desktop-Enviroment: I've tested both with xfce4 and native xterm (changing /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh between sessions). In both cases I've been able to type any letters (normal and shifted) in xterm with no delay. I've typed sequences like your example (ssh -x<backspace>X) several times but without observing a delay as explained. What window manager are you using within xrdp-sessions (gnome, kde, xfce, etc.)? Are you using xrdp from fedora's package manager (and if yes, what version is it) or do you have compiled it from source? It's curious that this seems to happen always after pressing <backspace>. Have you ever monitored with xev in a terminal window, what key is being reported, when you press <backspace>? In my case, keycode 64 (keysym 0xff08, Backspace) is reported (both "key pressed" and "key released" event). Try to monitor some sequence like x <backspace> X ... do you see all keyevents in xev (press/release x, press/release backspace, press shift, press x, release both)?
