Hi Wez,
Thanks for your response.
Below please find the xev output for the following sequence
of events:
- Start up xev.
- on the "real" keyboard press Alt-Gr + E and then space bar
(Twice).
- on the "real" keyboard press Alt-Gr + 2 (gives @) and then
space bar (Twice).
- on the VNC client keyboard press Alt-Gr + E and then space
bar (Twice).
- on the VNC client keyboard press Alt-Gr + 2 (gives @) and
then space bar (Twice).
There may be superfluous space key events. I've edited out
most MotionNotify events.
Does this lot mean anything to you?
Thanks for your help.
Regards, Mike
