Hello all,
I was just upgrading a few libraries for cups and xpp when I developed
some odd problems.
Now, my backspace key functions as delete and the number pad works as
numbers whether or not the Number Lock is on. I have a normal 104 key
IBM keyboard.
I was unable fix this with XF86Setup but when it started up it had a
warning that it was unable to read information from the keyboard. It
also said this usually happens when the XKEYBOARD extension is not
enabled or the x-server does not support it. The xkeyboard extension is
installed:
#xdpyinfo -ext XKEYBOARD | tail -2
XKEYBOARD version 1.0 opcode: 136, base event: 84, base error: 136
The XF86config file has the following in the keyboard section:
Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "pc104"
XkbLayout "us"
EndSection
This is puzzling because I didn't change the configuration when this stopped
working properly.
Any help would be appreciated.
Sean
