Sorry, I forgot to mention it yesterday, but kinput is a kana / kanji server. So if you want it to catch the shift-space command, it should run first. - Open a terminal; - Type kinput2 <return> Then try shift-space i an application that supports Japanese. It should work. > also, i already configured my keyboard to 106 japanese >but none of those extra keys work. I tried to edit the >key binding configuration but it cant detect the extra >keys. The keyboard should not matter. I mean, if the keyboard is wrong, it may not work properly, but for sure, toggle the Japanese input with shift-space will work. I use a plain qwerty keyboard (settings = US, not international). >is the windows key really not working in mandrake? What is the windows key?
