Package: matchbox-keyboard Version: 0.1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
this bug was first discovered on the Openmoko FreeRunner [1], but it
happens on my sid-amd64 with Openbox, too.
The following test was performed firstly pressing "<" and then ">".
- physical keyboard:
=====
KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x1600001,
root 0x68, subw 0xa00420, time 46952966, (5,47), root:(6,441),
state 0x1, keycode 59 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 94
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) "<"
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) "<"
XFilterEvent returns: False
[...]

Simply unsetting keycode 94 with `xmodmap -e 'keycode 94 = '` solves the
issue.
Thx, bye,
