Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 1831362] [NEW] European keyboard PC-105 deadkey
Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2019 08:03:21 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <155946260192.25075.10232018977169106863.malonedeb@gac.canonical.com> (raw)

Public bug reported:

With a freshly compiled version of qemu 4.0.50 on Windows 10 (host)

I am using 3 different Belgian keyboards and I have the same behaviour
- 2 USB keyboards (Logitech and HP) and
- the keyboard of my laptop (HP)

3 characters on the same key cannot be used (the key seams to be dead):
< (less than),
> (greater than) used with the combination of LShift or RShift
\ (backslash) used with the combination of AltGr

Using grub command mode from an archlinux installation (5.1.4)
The keyboard seams to be a mix of azerty and qwerty keyboard
all letters are correctly mapped but all numbers and special
characters are not

Using sendkey in monitor
"sendkey <" results in : \
"sendkey shift-<" results in : |
"sendkey ctrl-alt-<" results in : nothing

REM: VirtualBox can handle this key and with the showkey command
     from the archlinux kbd package, it shows :
     keycode 86 press
     keycode 86 release

** Affects: qemu
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New


** Tags: keyboard windows
