System: C3100 + rc12 + XFCE 4.2.2 (Chero's packages)
Scite 1.62
Gnumeric 1.6.0
Problem: when I use Scite I cannot enter numbers, ie 1, 2, 3 etc. Those number keys gets interpreted as FUNCTION keys, eg if I press '3', Scite interprets that as F3 and does a "Find next", and similarly pressing 8 shows the Output window. The only number keys which behave are those that apparently not mapped to any functions keys, these being 6, 9 & 0.
A similar problem exists in Gnumeric but to a lesser extent in that only the 1 key is affected (that's mapped to F1 Help, but since no help is supplied with the Z version of Gnumeric nothing happens).
This problem manifests itself in both Matchbox and XFCE.
I should probably add that I had uncommented out the section in akita.xmodmap so as to enable the function keys (so that Fn1 -> F1 etc), and those work fine eg in midnight commander.
As I am using PocketWorkstation/Debian, for fun I installed Scite on that as well, and sadly the same problem exists.
Has anyone else come across the same problem? Any clues on how to fix it?
ps. I have tried commenting out the function keys section in akita.xmodmap, and now Scite and Gnumeric works as expected, BUT I've lost the use of F-keys and that makes using mc a lot less convenient.
So any ideas how I can use F-keys and have Scite, Gnumeric (and probably other programs that I haven't come across yet) behave properly?
