 Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2006 7:28 pm Post subject: no super key in XGL |
 |
|
I don't know why my XGL doesn't catch super key. Also, when going to
preferences -> keyboard -> layout:
-keyboard model is set to unknown and I cannot change it (clicking '...' opens new window with empty space inside, nothing to select)
-there is only 'us' layout and I cannot add more (same empty space)
preferences -> keyboard -> layout options:
nothing to select (empty space again)
also,
preferences -> mouse -> pointers:
empty space 
strange thing:
| Code: | beju@cephiro ~ $ setxkbmap -layout pl
XKB extension not present on :0.0 |
my compiz launch code is
| Code: | | DISPLAY=:0 setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout "pl(winkeys)" -variant winkeys -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" |
and another strange thing is that everything works in normal X server. Any help would be appreciated. |

hallo,
try this 
xprop -root -f _XKB_RULES_NAMES 8s -set _XKB_RULES_NAMES xorg
setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout de -variant basic <---- change for your layout
IMHO you don't need to start with ' DISPLAY=:0 '

If all else fails, try this : | Code: |
xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.fr_ch (or whatever your keyboard is) |
Needs to be done at each boot but it solves the problem. |

Thanks for all, but nothing has brought back my super key  Maybe someone knows why the XKB extension is not present in XGL?
EDIT:
this is my log while lauching xgl:
| Code: | error opening security policy file /usr/lib64/xserver/SecurityPolicy
The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning: Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols
> Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
error opening security policy file /usr/lib64/xserver/SecurityPolicy
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/TTF, removing from list!
SESSION_MANAGER=local/cephiro:/tmp/.ICE-unix/8964
Window manager warning: Log level 32: could not find XKB extension. |

| I have this option on. But now I've found another thing - my numeric keypad doesn't work! The numbers are acting as arrow keys I thins this all is related to XGL being unable to load xkb extension. But why??? |
