Description Rafael Ávila de Espíndola 2004-04-20 21:07:30 UTC

The abnt2 keyboard has a comma and a dot in the keypad. The dot is generating  
the KP_Decimal keysym but the comma is generating the comma keysym. This make  
both comas use the same keysym. It appears to me that KP_Separator should  
be generated by the keypad comma. 
 
I have found this problem while trying to make the abnt2 keyboard work  
properly with wine  
(http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2004/04/0214.html and  
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/04/0299.html).

Created attachment 219 [details] [review]
changes comma to KP_Separator

Implements the proposed change in the keypad comma keysym.

Comment 2 Rafael Ávila de Espíndola 2004-12-02 15:48:38 UTC

This is fixed since "X Keyboard Configuration Database" version 0.2. When will xorg 
use it?

Comment 3 Erik Andren 2006-03-14 08:16:33 UTC

Does current xorg use it?

Comment 4 Erik Andren 2006-06-28 12:13:08 UTC

Ping!

Comment 5 Rafael Ávila de Espíndola 2006-06-28 13:08:33 UTC

I believe that it is fixed. xc/programs/xkbcomp/symbols/keypad has:

partial keypad_keys
xkb_symbols "comma" {
    key <KPDL> {       [ KP_Delete, KP_Separator ] };
};

and pc/br has:
include "keypad(comma)"

br has: 
key <KPDL> {	[  KP_Delete,	comma			]	};

I think that this in wrong, but at lest in ubuntu I can't find this file.

Marking broken (status null/blank) bugs in xorg with no activity in a long time as fixed. Please reopen if you think it's necessary, but first do a search if a similar bug report is already filed and in a NEW/ASSIGNED state. These bugs do not currently show in most search results as they do not have any status.
