[Bug 30562] Re: Acer € and $ + special l aptop keys: outside supported X keycode range
These keys are mapped correctly in the kernel, but a limitation on the number of distinct keycodes that X can handle prevents these from being communicated to the X server. To work around this, you can use setkeycodes to map the key to a keycode below 256 that you aren't using, then use xmodmap to map this keycode to the desired keysyms. ** Summary changed: - Acer € and $ + special laptop keys + Acer € and $ + special laptop keys: outside supported X keycode range ** Package changed: udev-extras (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) -- Acer € and $ + special laptop keys: outside supported X keycode range https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30562 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 30562] Re: Acer € and $ + special l aptop keys: outside supported X keycode range
Hi, I'm using Acer Aspire 5672WLMi laptop , I'm trying to get my $ and euro keys to work [both euro and $ keys are on either side of the Up arrow key ] I tired to follow this wiki given on this bug report> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerAspire5610#%E2%82%AC%20and%20$%20Keys But stopped at the xkeycaps section , since *none* of the keyboard layouts did not match my laptop keyboards , and i didnt want to mess the layout , and didnt do anything further. Now, the weird thing is the $ key triggers a "," - earlier it did *not* trigger *anything* , previously the $ key just did not work[no output] I ran $ xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p' it returns: $ > keycode 129 = (keysym 0xffac, KP_Separator), state = 0x0 euro > keycode 128 = (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), state = 0x0 something seems to have changed but assigned wrongly, unfortunately i dont know the keycodes/keysym before i tried the wiki seems my keycodes are *not* outside the keycode range but are not assigned properly... this is not probably the same bug ! or maybe it is , since i dont know the previous keycodes :( should i file a separate bug or does anyone know how to fix this? -- Acer € and $ + special laptop keys: outside supported X keycode range https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/30562 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
