[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1038136] [NEW] lack of keycode 89 for br-abnt2 keyboards

[Gilcio Amaral Martins]

Public bug reported:

qemu-kvm-1.1.1
host system: slackware64-13.37
Bug detailed description:
Independent of Guest OS nothing happens when keycode 89 is pressed. 
If you select option "-k pt-br" at qemu commandline you get keycode 89 but there is no more keycode 26 (dead_acute dead_grave) and keycode 51 fails on "less" sign.
If you have a numeric keyboard you can use its "slash" key but there is no means to use the question mark, causing discomfort when you are scripting or programming.

I've managed to resolve it applying the following patch (without "-k pt-
br"):

Attached patch (may not apply cleanly as I edited it manually to correct
for space alignment; but c'mon, it is so straight forward).

[T. Huth]

Looks like this the key has been added by this commit here:
http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=33aa30cafcce053b83
So I think we can close this bug ticket now.
