[Bug 112309] Re: VNCSERVER SSH Keymap Keyboard jumbled
I've almost worked out a keymap that fixes the keyboard for VNC. To use it, type e.g. xmodmap -display :46 vnc-keymap.txt in an SSH session to the same host (replace 46 by your VNC display number). The Z and :; keys are still broken, and I worked it out from a laptop so I don't have any of the keypad keys. ** Attachment added: Keymap that fixes things, mostly http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39051130/vnc-keymap.txt -- VNCSERVER SSH Keymap Keyboard jumbled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112309 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also, as suggested by this posts: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/+bug/112955/comments/3 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=382441 this might be related to executing gnome-session to start the gnome environment on vnc. when using the workaround posted on bug #112955: quote Workaround: I modified my ~/.vnc/xstartup to be: #!/bin/sh xrdb $HOME/.Xresources gnome-wm gnome-panel nautilus --no-default-window gnome-cups-icon gnome-volume-manager /quote I could type normally into the vnc session.

I also confirm this problem on tightvnc in Hardy. And I found when I run 'gnome-appearence-properties %F', the keyboard just messed up. I got the nomral keymap without gnome-appearence-properties running. The result is I lost my wallpaper. When I return to physical machine, an warning was reported by gnome, it seems like the configuration of keyborad in gnome is different with X, which would you like to use? I choose gnome it will be ok, but the X choice is not ok. I used jp106 keyboard.

[Bug 112309] Re: VNCSERVER SSH Keymap Keyboard jumbled
I'm seeing the same thing on ubuntu 7.10 with vncserver 3.3.7-14ubuntu1 AND tightvncserver 1.2.9-21 on a fresh install. (I notice they both depend on vnc-common.) vnc4server (with vnc4-common) works fine. When typing in a terminal, instead of qerty i get c.gvn (the 'y' doesn't translate to a printable character). Through patient copy paste, I was able to run xev, which concurs that qwerty is c.gvn and reveals that 'y' is Shift_R. With Caps lock turned on, QWERTY becomes 1C11G1V1N (each letter press generated two characters, the first always '1'). With Shift held down, QWERTY becomes 1CGVN, with the '1' occuring when Shift is depressed (and held down), and again 'Y' not printable. If I press release shift with every letter press, I get the '1' before or after each letter. And with NumLock on, the number pad keys, including the operators, period, and Enter key, work correctly! In short, this doesn't smell like a KBD map problem. VNC doesn't seem to support that extension, anyway. In summary, I see this problem in a gutsy fresh install; vnc4server does NOT have this problem. I'm willing to help diagnose. Jeremy Background info: Note another bug report ([vnc] can't find fixed font https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/18593) that may or may not be related.
