Public bug reported: Git commit hash where bug was reproduced: 62a172e6a77d9072bb1a18f295ce0fcf4b90a4f2
A user of my application bVNC reported that when he connects to his VMs running under Qemu, he cannot send @, #, and *. Instead, 2, 3, and 8 appear in the VM respectively. I built the latest Qemu from source, and reproduced the issue. bVNC converts keycodes or unicode characters that the Android keyboard sends it to corresponding keysyms. For example, it sends keysym 64 for @ rather than sending SHIFT+2. A debug log of the application sending the keysyms shows metaState == 0, indicating lack of modifier keys.
