Bug#201884: xfree86: Unicode keysyms available as numbers
Package: xfree86 Version: unavailable; reported 2003-08-14 Followup-For: Bug #201884 My problem has been solved by simply using U2010 in my xmodmap file instead of a keysym name. I didn't know this style was supported, as the xmodmap man page doesn't seem to indicate this. That makes it possible to reach any character under the sky, just not by proper name.

Bug#201884: xfree86: soft hyphen confusion

While XFree86 doesn't support all of Unicode (no wonder, that's a little big), there are many things that are supported, like the symbols under XK_PUBLISHING (I use doublelowquotemark, for instance), most of which are not in any ISO-8859-* charset, and are probably also missing from most others. The fact that hyphen maps to soft hyphen seems dodgy to me. Bye, Mike -- |=| Michael Piefel |=| Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin |=| Tel.

Bug#201884: xfree86: soft hyphen confusion
Package: xfree86 Version: unavailable; reported 2003-07-18 Severity: minor Not sure which of the many X packages is responsible for this... or perhaps even locales... I have the following line in my xmodmap: keycode 61 = minus underscore endash hyphen Unfortunately, the letter produced is then U00AD, that is the Latin-1 Soft Hyphen, instead of U2010, the Unicode Hyphen. The keysym name suggests otherwise, and there is no way I can see to get a hyphen. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux kosh 2.4.21-2-k7 #1 Sat Jul 5 03:47:02 EST 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 -- |=| Michael Piefel |=| Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin |=| Tel.

Bug#164034: Resolution 1400x1050

Actually, that's OK for me, altough it would be nice to get not only a usable configuration, but the correct/final one. Bye, Mike -- |=| Michael Piefel |=| Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin |=| Tel.
