Description Satoshi KImura 2004-11-11 23:02:45 UTC

1. BUG
 On Xorg 6.7.0, some keycodes are converted for PC AT,
but this conversion is undesired for NEC PC-98x1.
So, following bugs occur.
(1) Some kyes (CTRL, CAPS, SHIFT, Kana, Alt) become to make
  no sense. (i.e which have no functions to be assigned.)
(2) Some Keys (F9, VF3) have wrong funcions.

2. patch
  Following patch is available to avoid the bug.
(Note: This patch is made for XFree86 4.4.0.)

Comment 6 Daniel Stone 2007-02-27 01:24:36 UTC

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.

Comment 7 Daniel Stone 2007-04-07 15:20:34 UTC

since the old keyboard code no longer exists, marking as a dupe of the kbd bug.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 2561 ***

Comment 8 Satoshi KImura 2007-04-08 09:39:13 UTC

I see. Since I had sent report to X.Org and FreeBSD, the later sent the same report as #2561.

> since the old keyboard code no longer exists, 
The source of X.Org 7.? was already modified by #2561, but 6.9.0 was not modified.
Tha last version of FreeBSD (6.2) makes use of X.Org 6.9.0 with modification.

If next FreeBSD will use X.Org 7.2 or so, need not to modify 6.9.0 any more.
So we can close here.

Comment 9 Daniel Stone 2007-04-08 10:17:34 UTC

i don't know, i can't speak for freebsd.  but 6.9.0 is a dead codebase, so i sure hope it starts using 7.x ...
