Version: (using KDE 4.4.0) Installed from: SuSE RPMs This might be relevant also to VNC, but since I am working with RDP I can only say about it. It would be useful if KRDC could check if the key combination I am using it translateable to a character (locally), and if yes, send this character instead of key combination. The reason is, the key combination on the remote side could be ambiguous or even not recognized as a character. My problem: I try to enter some Polish characters, when I press alt+o (for example) which locally produces "รณ", alt (*) + o is send to to windows remote machine and this produces "oo". (*) probably: the key physically is labeled alt, in windows (remote) it is altgr, in linux (local) is meta The only workaround I know for now is using windows on-screen virtual keyboard to enter non-US characters.
KRDC RDP support is based on rdesktop. Rdesktop decides how to transfer keys. So please report this issue upstream to rdeskop developers and post the report # here. Thank you.
Ok, done, the report is here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2970843&group_id=24366&atid=381350
