Good points. fwiw - the latest verison-rdesktop 1.3.1 inherits keysyms, maps and modifiers from X.
I'm running rh9 with XFree 4.3.x - I went back and checked ;apparently - the key thing you need to do is to specify pc102 keybd. Specifying kblayout "en" or "he" both seem to work fine in english and hebrew. For general user deployment it makes more sense to retain the conventions that Windows users are used to i.e. right/left alt-shift. btw - I've just ported this little change into PXES - so that you can have a bootable iso image or bootp over PXE that supports Windows terminal servers with hebrew/english support for Windows applications. The std PXES distribution didnt support hebrew input methods properly. danny ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tzafrir Cohen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 16, 2004 9:23 AM Subject: Re: Rdesktop 1.3.1 hebrew support?! > On Sun, Aug 15, 2004 at 08:49:24AM +0200, Danny Lieberman (Barak) wrote: > > doh. > > > > the answer was embarassingly simple > > > > 1. make sure you're using the latest version 1.3.1 - you need the rdp5 support > > 2. you want your XF86Config file to specify: > > > > Option XkbModel "pc102" > > Option XkbLayout "he" > > Option XkbVariant "nodeadkeys" > > What version of XFree do you use?
