It contains multiple input-related fixes. Fixed mine (443471) but reverted back to xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4-3 as with 2:1.4.1~git20071117-1 resolution is broken here (HorizSync and VertRefresh values are ignored from xorg.conf, i'll double check and eventually file a new one ^_^). Strangely enough, it's now working with 2:1.4-3 too. Should i close it myself (443471) or should i leave it to the maintainers?

Left control (which has been mapped to caps-lock by ctrl:swapcaps) and left alt. This is a laptop. It has two controls and two alts. Right alt works as compose. Left control suffers this problem, right control does not (I hadn't tried until now). The problem as seen from xkbwatch with unstable is: 1) a. press left control -> 6th row turns on b. press left alt -> nothing happens (6th row is still on) c. release all keys 2) a. press right control -> 6th row turns on b. press left alt -> 5th row turns on (6th row is still on) c. release all keys 3) a. press left alt -> 5th row turns on b. press left control -> 6th row turns on (5th row is still on) c. release all keys 4) a. press left alt -> 5th row turns on b. press right control -> 6th row turns on (5th row is still on) c. release all keys The only difference is that in my old setup the "nothing happens" in test 1 was a "5th row turns on." That is the method I always use to activate C-A combinations. I hope this makes things clear.

Then I upgraded them one at a time up to current unstable, I haven't been able to notice any difference when playing with ctrl and alt in xkbwatch. Could you please clarify what you are exactly seeing when doing what in xkbwatch with current testing (your old working setup) and current unstable (broken)? Also, are you using the right ctrl or the left one, when trying to use "ctrl+alt"? Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I had upgraded this package, so I just reverted it to the version you suggested, I restarted X (the first time at the gdm screen I killed it with Alt-Ctrl-BS, just in case) and now I'm back at my Gnome session, but the problem persists.

He wants to know whether you upgraded xkb-data at the same time. Or did you just upgrade xserver-xorg* things? /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/aptitude should help you figure this out. Downgrading xkb-data to the one in testing (1.0~cvs.20070721-1 instead of 1.0~cvs.20070916-1) might be worth a try.

No, they don't, if I leave them as "default" on the Gnome side, somehow some of them are reset. As you can see, the set is different to the one below, since altwin is one that does not get overridden by Gnome. Yeah, I should report that bug to the Gnome guys while I'm at this. > > Yeah, but it didn't. > > Did you use reportbug or reportbug-ng? $ dpkg -s $(dpkg -S $(which reportbug) | cut -f 1 -d :) | grep -E '^(Package|Version)' Package: reportbug Version: 3.39 > Does it help if you comment XkbOptions out? (or maybe just remove > ctrl:swapcaps) I disabled ctrl:swapcaps from Gnome and it does fix the issue indeed.

Do you have anything in your xorg.conf or desktop environment to change the keyboard layout/behavior? Please send the whole output of /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg/script 3>&1 so that we see your whole config and log (the reportbug tool should have do that for you, by the way). thanks, Brice

Reversing the order however and pressing Alt-Ctrl- works as expected. Xkbwatch confirms that the server is not recognizing (or receiving?) the event for the alt key while ctrl is pressed.
