Yes, Alt-s does not work. If I change it to Mod1, that triggers but still adds "s" to the entry widget. > Then, which window manager are you using, and can you try it with some > other WM(s) , does the problem persist then? I haven't had that opportunity, however I was debugging whether it was an xmodmap issue. My xmodmap output: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- $ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 5 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock control Control_L (0x25), Control_L (0x42), Control_R (0x69) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Meta_L (0xcd) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Alt_R (0x6c), Super_L (0x85), Super_R (0x86), Super_L (0xce), Hyper_L (0xcf) mod5 ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c), Mode_switch (0xcb) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is really plain. The only change is Alt_R is bound to mod4. I'm using the left Alt in my testing. At this point, I'm pretty sure its not xmodmap. Every other GUI app works fine with Alt. Emacs, Firefox, Pidgeon, Dolphin, Urxvt, and the list goes on. If there had been a problem anywhere else with Alt, I'd have immediately tracked it down as a local configuration issue. > Then, which version of Tk are you using, and, if your distribution offers > this, can you try and install a second Tcl/Tk-version and try if it is the > same with this one? Ubuntu's TCL 8.5.8-2build1 and Tk 8.5.8-1. No other, but I may be upgrading to the latest Ubuntu shortly.
