How do I get that working?
I really have no idea why it crashes. It should work on plain Redhat installation. But I will try this also on other distributions. > > > How to reproduce the behaviour: > > > > 1) startx > > 2) Left Shift + Right Shift simultaneously > > this activates Czech keyboard layout > > 3) shift+ctrl+r simultaneously - this should exec rxvt, but is does not! > > Does the keycode of the r key change when you switch the layout? > Fvwm is not aware of nor does it handle this situation. No, this is not the reason. "r" remains on its position even on czech layout. Fvwm ignores all key bindings. I tried many of them (F11, F12, Alt+Tab, Ctrl+Shift+arrows, ...) And, if some window has the focus, fvwm does what I want no matter what the keyboard layout is. Keycode does not change. Something must have been changed since version 2.2.4 that could influence this.
