script with xmodmap mapping arrow keys to key combinations
Is this a duplicate of bug 256266? (In reply to comment #2) > Is this a duplicate of bug 256266? A duplicate is a bug that's reproduced, verified, and fixed in the same way. This bug is reproduced and verified differently. For example, the other bug involves khotkeys, this one involves xmodmap, and they may use different keyboard mapping methods. It may well turn out that they have the same underlying cause and fix, but people won't know that until someone who understands the software looks at it. I am a bit confused why OS X is mentioned in the report... Sorry, the last sentence has a confusing typo. Of course it should read: "Whatever the source of the problem, *KDE* should respect and correctly implemen, standard X11 keyboard mappings." (In reply to comment #4) > I am a bit confused why OS X is mentioned in the report... OS X is mentioned because attempting to support OS X's broken keyboard support has been a source of problems with arrow key mappings in other cross-platform toolkits, and it may be the source here as well. Let me try to be crystal clear: KDE apps do not correctly handle arrow keys remapped with xmodmap in, for example, Kate running under X11 on Ubuntu Linux 10.10. Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! Dear Bug Submitter, This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! No response; assuming it was fixed since then. |
