 Posted: Sat Apr 21, 2007 12:48 pm Post subject: xmodmap change in behaviour |
 |
|
Hello,
Since some X11 update today, "xmodmap" no longer works as expected. It only affects applications started after the xmodmap change, but not the already running ones. Is this a feature or a bug? How can I get the old behaviour?
Thanks in advance |

Same problem here. KDE's keyboard switching is affected as well (I assume they just use xmopmap). Switching only affects newly started programs.
I don't know if it is related but I recently noticed the following in the xorg log:
| Code: |
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard0" (type: KEYBOARD)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse0" (type: MOUSE)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "NVIDIA Event Handler" (type: Other)
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compatibility { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc(pc105)+us" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
(--) Mouse0: PnP-detected protocol: "ExplorerPS/2"
(II) Mouse0: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
xkb_types { include "%" };
xkb_compatibility { include "%" };
xkb_symbols { include "%" };
xkb_geometry { include "%" };
(EE) Error loading keymap /usr/share/X11/xkb/compiled/server-0.xkm
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compatibility { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc(pc105)+us(dvorak)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };

I don't recall seeing the { include "[whatever]" }; lines before, but then, I haven't checked the xorg log in a while.
Using the nvidia driver, if it helps.

I believe this is the same issue:

Solution is to reemerge xorg-server. Now, kde switching and kde keyboard shortcuts work as expected.
