Description Somsak Sriprayoonsakul 2004-11-19 04:35:23 UTC
This bug was-reenter from the old bug posted at
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=97460. Last time, it can be
resolved by uncomment "nonlatin" in the rules file. That does not works for
/usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg. Although the us keymap is implicitly included
in keyboard layout chain, I still can not press Ctrl-c while in non-latin
keyboard layout (such as th).

i don't think this is inconsistent with the spec at all.  xkb specifies only a
Ctrl+(letter) translation to control codes, and nothing else.  in the current
group, Ctrl+(thai symbol), is just that: the Thai symbol with ctrl as a
modifier.  whatever implements the key bindings should be cycling through all
the groups to determine if there's an applicable binding.
