The old VNC patch uses LibVNCServer which is a derivative of the old Xvnc codebase. Details of why libvncserver didn't meet my goals have been addressed in previous threads but suffice to say, I felt that starting from scratch was necessary. The VNC protocol does a rather poor job in defining what keycodes correspond to what key events. It roughly says to follow the X keysyms but warns that many clients do weird things and does not actually document all of those things. Additionally, there's also translation to QEMU's keycodes. Fortunately, these things are easy to fix once we know what codes are being sent by the client. Unfortunately, I don't have an nl keyboard lying around so I need some help figuring that out :-) Regards, Anthony Liguori > Eric _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
