Hello beoble, it is my first mail to this mailing list.
I just installed OpenBSD 5.8 and it is working nicely with one problem,
I can't hold keys down. It goes for a second and then gets interrupted-
apparently by another keypress.
I fired up xev to see what is happening and it gave this output, looks
like there is a keystroke sent every second, with a keycode of 119.
KeyRelease event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
root 0x9d, subw 0x0, time 19928102, (-360,542), root:(444,560),
state 0x0, keycode 119 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
If it was on Linux, I would just map it to "void" using
# setkeycodes 0x77 255
and not care about it again. I googled and
asked on U&L stackexchange for an equivalent of this and found
wsconsctl,
and tried out
# wsconsctl keyboard.map+="keycode 119=voidSymbol"
and
# wsconsctl keyboard.map+="keycode 119=a"
to see if it does anything after all, but no love. I am quite lost since
even if I knew how to map it, I don't know where to map it in order to
make
it ignored after all.
Not sure if it will help, but here is the output of wsconsctl
keyboard.map:
keyboard.map=
keycode 119 = a A
so I know it is setting the variable.
There is no relevant output in xconsole or dmesg.
Thanks in advance,
Sikerb Ela
