Sorry, but this is not reproduceable in my environs. Diacritical characters generally do not appear on the first keyclick but double on a second keyclick. This is normal because diacritical characters wait for the (next) character they should appear above, below or whatever. Hence, if there's no character such as an "e" which can carry a circumflex the two characters will be put out in sequence thus the first keyclick on circumflex displays nothing an the second will display evoke "^^". Upon this post I've tested this in windows to windows and windows to linux and have not observed the "BUG" phenomenon, rather regular behaviour as described above. One reason for this to occur one could reason is incompatible keyboard mapping on the Linux and Windows side Dietmar

Hi all, Meanwhile I've tried it on several machines and the problem seems to appear everywhere. So imho this definetly is a bug in VNC. TightVNC has the same problem. You should be able to reproduce the problem easily: - In Win2000 Control Panel/Keyboard/InputLocales select the keyboard layout German or German(IBM) - Under Linux (only tried 2.4.x kernels, several distributions) start a vncserver - Under Windows start a vnc viewer and connect to the linux box. - In VNC press the key left to the 1 key, right above the tab key on your keyboard. On the german keyboard, this is where the cirumflex letter is. Instead of one circumflex character, two of these ^^ appear. In any other windows-application this does not appear so in my eyes, this has to be a bug in VNC. So far.. - Clemens - --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
