[Bug 767325] New: Changed keycodes break custom .Xmodmap
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767325 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767325#c0 Summary: Changed keycodes break custom .Xmodmap Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 12.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer Blocker: --- Some keycodes seem to have changed between openSUSE 12.1 and current Factory. Keycode 117 was the "menu" key (next to AltGr) in 12.1, but now is the code for PageDown. The "menu" key now has keycode 135. There might also be other keycode changes, but fortunately my .Xmodmap is short enough, so I didn't notice more changes ;-) Needless to say that the keycode change caused some "funny effects"[tm] with my .Xmodmap after updating from 12.1 to Factory. Are the keycode changes intentional or a bug? - if they are a bug, please fix/revert them - if they are intentional, I propose to add a note to the release notes. We can even recycle the text from openSUSE 11.2, see bug 551727 ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Could it be that you still used the "keyboard" driver with openSUSE 12.1 due to still using an old xorg.conf (and now switched to "evdev" driver by no longer using any xorg.conf). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(I also have a quite new keyboard and mouse, but they worked on 12.1 without changing xorg.conf.)

AutoAddDevices "on" (our and upstream default) means "evdev" driver, AutoAddDevices "off" means using the keyboard driver specified in xorg.conf (very likely "keyboard"). You get different keycodes with "keyboard" and "evdev" driver. ==> Closing as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 551727 *** http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551727 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
