It seems this is a feature (i.e. a documented bug) of X11, The keypad decimal key is mapped to KP_Decimal which is a symbolic key, translated somewhere on the application side. The workaround is xmodmap -e "keycode 91 = comma". I notice some keymaps (cz,sk) have fixed this, although they have commented the fix as inappropriate. So, where is KP_Decimal translated to "." ? .Xdefaults can be used for some applications (XLIb?, xterm etc) but not others (GTK, QT). -- robin _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
