Hi all,
I've had a key map/sticky problem occur twice now (over the course of a
couple months of heavy use). TurboVNC 2.0.1 (client and server, client is
Mac OSX Mavericks, server is RedHat 6.5).
Somehow a key gets stuck, or something starts getting misinterpreted.
Currently, when I try to press Ctrl-C (or Ctrl plus possibly any letter), I
get some very strange output from xev. The last time, the only thing I
could do to solve it was to restart the VNC server. I've wondered if there
is a kind of "key reset" or something that could be done to clear the
server's mind (for example if a lost packet caused it to get in a strange
state or something). I've no idea if such a thing is even possible.
Any tips for how to narrow things down? This same session has been up
since Nov 16 without trouble (and I probably type Ctrl-C dozens of times a
day). It is just this afternoon that I find myself without proper keys.
Ctrl-V also doesn't seem to work correctly (it may be all Ctrl key
combinations).
Here is my xev output. I'm pressing Ctrl, then c, then releasing both.
Notice the extra things in here (unprintable chars and a Shift_L). Note
that on my screen, the "" actually have a strange character in there (it
doesn't paste over). It almost appears that when I press c, I also get a
Shift_L and another unknown key.
