Description Mike A. Harris 2006-02-10 03:17:13 UTC 
A bug was recently reported in Red Hat bugzilla, where the "print" keysym
no longer functions properly, so printscreen does not work.

We have a patch to the xkb data files which fixes this problem, which has
been present since around XFree86 4.3.0 or so.  Most of our patch has already
been integrated into X.Org X11R7, however one file got left out.

I created a new patch for X11R7's xkbdata and will be attaching it shortly.

Please integrate this into the xorg xkbdata CVS, and not just into
xkeyboard-config, so that it's resolved in the X.Org shipping files as
well.
