Followup-For: Bug #121297 Package: xlibs Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 I also did not have a proper AltGr key, making typing things like [ difficult. So i copied /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh/de to /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh/de2 (attached) and corrected the keys.
A few notes:
a) I never used MacOS, hence I chose the symbols ordinarilly appearing
in Linux via AltGr. Only the following keys have a printed "third"
(AltGr) code:
e with Euro sign
L with at sign
and hence I think it makes no sense
b) In contrast to the other reporter, I have the following function
key layout:
<fn> <ctrl> <alt> <apple> <space> <apple> <???> <arrow keys>
c) I left the at sign at L, but doubled it to q where it "normally" is
available. I use both Apple keys as AltGr, and did not try to use
the ??? key (I have no idea what this key is supposed to do, i
heard it is Mac OS 9-legacy, right now it produces an Enter).
d) Some keys do not print anything, though I defined them, I marked
them with // does not work
e) On my x86 at work, the following additonal AltGr-combinations are
defined. I could not find their name, hence I did not assing them
in the attached file (and I never used them):
AltGr-R looks like paragraph sign, instead registered is printed
AltGr-P looks like a p where the belly has sacked down a little
AltGr-A on my x86 box the ae-letter is printed, now aring is
printed
AltGr-S ß is printed, but I did not want to double it
AltGr-D like an o, where a diagonal bar is place above it, which
is crossed by another bar
AltGr-G x86 has nothing here, left alone from original definition
AltGr-H x86 has nothing here, left alone from original definition
AltGr-N x86 has nothing here, left alone from original definition
If you need additional information (photo of keyboard?) please mail
me, I can also try things out. And please apply at least the
assignement of the AltGr-key.
