Just tried with the latest nightly from Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian 9 as client machine to win 7/win 10/ win 2016 and do get the expected keys on the remote side ('.' as well as 'DEL'). For the test I've also used a US keymap. So my guess would be that there are some differences in the key mapping. Since you can reproduce it on Ubuntu could you provide us the following information that that we can figure out what is going on? * output of "setxkbmap -print" on the Ubuntu side * when you run xev on Ubuntu what do you get if you hit the Del/. key with and without numlock enabled (I'm mainly interested in the key press events xev shows) * what keyboard language do you use on the windows side? * for windows side keyboard debugging I tend to use a small utility called KeyView.exe (you find it at http://pub.freerdp.com/people/bmiklautz/KeyView.exe) can you run it on the remote side when you are connected and tell me what you get there when pressing the key within the session? For testing please use the latest nightly package from https://ci.freerdp.com/job/freerdp-nightly-binaries/. So long, best regards Bernhard _______________________________________________ FreeRDP-devel mailing list FreeRDP-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freerdp-devel
