The situation improved (tested with Karmic Koala Alpha 5). However, it is far from perfect. Hence, this bug is not fixed.
This is what improved: * "Pressing only 1 key" works, but there is an important remark to make (*). * "Pressing shift and key" works, but there is an important remark to make (*). * CD-ROM eject button works, but there is an important remark to make (*). (*) Ubuntu fails to set the keyboard layout automatically. Also, the above solution only works when *manually* (usability issue) selecting the "French Macintosh" keyboard layout and keyboard type in System/Preferences/Keyboard. AFAICS this layout is 100% similar as the Belgian Macintosh layout...however that one is not listed (usability issue!) Suggested fix: 1) Copy the "French Macintosh" keyboard layout to "Belgian Macintosh". (*easy* usability improvement for Belgian users with a Macintosh keyboard) 2) Automatically set the right keyboard and keyboard layout if a Macintosh keyboard is detected (usability improvement for all owners of a Macintosh keyboard) 3) Fix the remaining issues of the original report. In particular a solution for entering a pipe would be a very welcome usability improvement for command line users and programmers. -- Poor keyboard support: Macbook Belgian Azerty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290473 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
