A long time ago, probably around March or so, my keyboard was fine. I use three keyboard layouts, and I found that Alt+Capslock keychord useful for switching between the three of them. It was so set up in the Gnome preferences, and all was well.
At some point later during some upgrade (I track testing with an occasional non-critical unstable package), this merry arrangement was lost, and has been broken ever since. Now the Alt+Capslock keychord isn't recognised, but if I go into the Gnome preferences and make any modifications to the keychords use for switching keyboard layouts (e.g. click and unclick one of the many other keychords available) it works again, minus the minor discomfort that the keyboard capslock LED toggles when I do the Alt+Capslock keychord. This didn't happen before. I have seen similar behaviour in other GTK+ apps. In Xchat, for instance, I like Ctrl+Shift+n and C-S-p for switching between the previous and next tab (looks similar to Emacs keychords, and feels comfortable). However, I see a very similar behaviour in that restarting Xchat makes the keychords non-functional until I go again into the Xchat preferences and again make some random change to the keychords therein and undo it immediately. What's going on? It's freeze time now, and I want this problem to get fixed when lenny releases, since my mom will be using lenny on her laptop when it releases. I need help figuring out even what package to file a bug for. Thanks, - Jordi G. H. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
