Title: some keys don't work with keyz
Post by: Snake on June 26, 2004, 04:41:36 pm: Hi!

I have some trouble with keyz 0.5.6-1 on my Zaurus SL-5500G using latest SharpROM 3.13. I need keyz to switch back to the German keyboard layout.

If I aktivate keyz, some keys won't work:
* FN+[' "] should be ~, but nothing happens
* FN+[ENTER] should be >, but nothing happens (sometimes I get a return)
* FN+[<-] should be DELETE, but nothing happens
* FN+[SPACE] should open the symbol table, but nothing happens

The same malfunctions are with the englisch keyz-dafinition, so I think, it's an error in common.xml or the program itself. If I deaktivate keyz with it's applet, all keys are working right (of course I have the wrong layout).

So, there are any hints?

I would do this, if anybody could tell my whats wrong.

Ok, I've tried to modify the common.xml. First, there was no entry for unicode 62 ">". I've copied alle entries for unicode 60 "<", changed "Period" to "Enter" und unicode 60 to 62 and now it works fine: FN+ENTER gets a Greater ">".
But now, If I press FN+[' "] (Apostrophe) I get also a ">".
Well, I've deleted all entries fÃ¼r unicode 126, should be Tilde "~" and copied the entries for unicde 60 a second time and changed "Period" to "Apostrophe" and unicode 60 to 126. But now, keyz does not work anymore (Zaurus reboots, zkb applet is hidden).

So long,
Frank
