Ctrl-4 generating ^\ is a keyboard configuration setting that can be seen with xev: KeyPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001, root 0x2b4, subw 0x0, time 87345747, (114,90), root:(1719,110), state 0x4, keycode 13 (keysym 0x34, 4), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (1c) "" XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (1c) "" XFilterEvent returns: False Byte 1c (= 28 in decimal) is ^\. FYI, Ctrl-3 to Ctrl-7 respectively generate 1b to 1f, and Ctrl-8 generates 7f (DEL). Since this happens just under X, I'd say that it is related to XKB. However the XKB keyboard description generated with xkbcomp $DISPLAY xkb.dump doesn't show anything related to this behavior. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
