Description Jarne Cook 2005-04-06 07:54:12 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.4.0, Debian Package 4:3.4.0-0pre2 (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-5-i8600

I am trying to configure my Global Keyboard Shortcuts.

When I try to enter Win+< ... it interperates it as "Win+>".

OK.  So that's fscked.  So tried Win+< to see what would happen.  It produced "Win+>" as well.

Just to make sure my setup wasn't fscked I checked xev. ...

Win+< (where '<' = Shift+,) produced these (I have ignored the events created from win, and shift).

KeyPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3e00001,
    root 0x46, subw 0x0, time 25666247, (-183,223), root:(688,756),
    state 0x41, keycode 59 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes:  "<"

KeyRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x3e00001,
    root 0x46, subw 0x0, time 25666278, (-183,223), root:(688,756),
    state 0x41, keycode 59 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes:  "<"


The other thing the kcontrol module still doesn't get it when I manually set the item I wanted to "Win+Less" in the keyboard shortcut profile [apps/kcmkeys/Logikal(4ModifierKeys).kksrc']

Go figure

I can confirm that. KDE 3.4.0 branch 20050313.
