The only unsolvable issue I encountered is with SDL library and other software that use low level keyboard info and is interested in state of shift, ctrl, alt keys. Programs that use such information may be confused

What puzzles me is that I have run into foreign users for whom aparently FOUR_LEVEL mappings do work... but replicating some of their mappings on my RX-51 config yield negative results.

I wonder if on this issue it might be relevant the flash images that we have on our devices, I have the USA-variant versus the Global-release
image. Do you if there are relevant differences between these images?

I never upgraded from my old N800 to the N810, so all these hardware keyboard problems are new. But it looks like FOUR_LEVEL *did* work to a higher degree on Diable than on Fremantle. Do you think, it is worth my opening a bug report on this?

Digressing a bit, under Qole's Easy Debian environment that is using the Xephyr X-server I am able to use xmodmap... and was able to program something like "keycode 108 = Mode_switch" and then "keysym period = period colon quote quotedown" and have it work reliably. It leads me to believe that if xmodmap were to work on Fremantle then perhaps we could program FOUR_LEVEL mappings reliably. Anyway, I have opened a bug report on the problem with xmodmap. https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8695.
