Hi Everyone,
I have a fingerprint scanner that i use to log into my Windows XP Pro machine. I would like to use Remote Desktop to access my desktop, however, the software that controls the fingerprint scanner doesn\'t move to the username/password when conencting from a RD client (it would normally go past the CTRL-ALT-DEL screen to the login prompt). I found that by messing around with a remote desktop client on another desktop, that i can send a CTRL-ALT-END in place of CTRL-ALT-DEL and it will be interpreted correctly.
I am using Qtrdesktop to connect to my desktop from my SL-5000D, OZ 3.3.5. Is there a way with the keypad, multikey, or anyother input that could effectively send a CTRL-ALT-END, or would that have to incorporated in the client itself. If I couldn\'t modify the client, would it be hard to make my own input method that just sends CTRL-ALT-END?
Just to note, I also run VNC, but I cannot enter my password at the prompt for whatever reason when remotely connecting... it might be a related issue. Anyway, sorry for the long wind. Thanks.

In case anyone was wondering the same thing, I found the answer to my question. Install the opie-keyboard ipk and use that instead of Multikey. Sending a CTRL-ALT-DEl [END] works like it should in that input method.
