Dear Chris: |

Unfortunately I'm still stuck with the keyboard problem in my Ultra |
| 4 |
10. I am starting to suspect this has to do more with a bug in KDE |
| 5 |
and nothing with the xkb configuration through xorg.conf (by the way, |
| 6 |
I don't have XFree but Xorg... that is what is in the GRP CD 2004-2 |
| 7 |
that I have. I have *not* compiled any software, much less |
| 8 |
XFree/Xorg!). |

Although my Sun keyboard is clearly labeled "Type 6", when I tried |
| 11 |
using the rules per rules/sun.lst for a Type 6 the keymap was totally |
| 12 |
messed up from the KDM login screen (I had to SSH remotely and shut |
| 13 |
KDM down). However, when set up as a Type 5 with |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Section "InputDevice" |
| 16 |
Identifier "Keyboard 1" |
| 17 |
Driver "keyboard" |
| 18 |
Option "Autorepeat" "500 30" |
| 19 |
Option "XkbRules" "sun" |
| 20 |
Option "XkbModel" "type5" |
| 21 |
Option "XkbLayout" "us" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
things seem to work perfectly from KDM in the local console. Remote X |
| 24 |
client applications work OK. But launching a KDE session from KDM |
| 25 |
locally gives a 99+% functional keyboard, except that the lowercase |
| 26 |
"b" does weird things. Weirdest of all, the key does work *sometimes* |
| 27 |
in Mozilla's address bar!!! Other times it makes Mozilla crash. It |
| 28 |
seems to work only immediately Mozilla's window is maximized and until |
| 29 |
the window loses focus. The terminal, KEdit or other apps don't seem |
| 30 |
to like the "b", except for the weird half-second lag. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Am I going insane or is this the weirdest bug ever? |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Any help, insight or spiritual guidance would be much appreciated. |
