Title: 1/f1 Issues
Post by: Capn_Fish on June 13, 2008, 10:25:37 am

Sorry if this has been answered already, I saw nothing obvious in my search (it'll also make finding the solution easier).

When using some apps (Epiphany, Gnumeric), the '1' key doesn't work. To make matters worse, it registers as F1, which, in Gnumeric at least, brings up the help (and bogs down the system SOOOO much). Any solutions?

Thanks.

Speaking german. Have the same problem.
But  -–––––––––––– can u say it in clear words?


(Sorry 2or0  , but - is there a chance in this forum to get an answer without solving a complete nineteen post yes-or-no sudoku puzzle?)

It's easy:

Code: [Select]

cd /usr/bin
mv yelp yelp.orig
EDITOR yelp
chmod a+x yelp
Add this to yelp:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
xmodmap -e 'keysym 0x31 = 1 exclam'
xmodmap -e 'keysym 0x34 = 4 dollar'
xmodmap -e 'keysym 0x39 = 9 parenright'
Thanks, 2or0, that works great!

Gnome sets the 1 and f1 keybindings too, gconfig to change them.
