Banging my head into the wall on this over the past few days. Seems
like it's a newfangled HAL issue, but I haven't been able to divine
anything about how I should go about making this thing cooperate.
Can somebody who has a clue about this stuff please just throw me a
bone here?

ASCII has has 33 control characters, among which tab and esc. These can be
typed in your terminal through control-something. For example, CTRL-I i

I think Ryan knows about the character palette (even with the mindboggling
third row behaviour), but even with the compositor and the increased power
compared with an N810, it's still slow and clumsy.

Hi Ryan,
What hardware keyboard layout are you using at the moment? You can check
this by going to the Settings->Text Input.
You should be able to input extra characters by pressing Fn and then the
Sym/Ctrl key. A dialog with extra characters pops up and all you need to

not contain enough keys to be usable. Notably missing are important
characters like tab and pipe.

with Xmodmap. But as xev wasn't properly setup to recei
