problems with < > key


Posts: 9

Well... i have a Gericom Webgine

and a very weird Pb with < > key...

it works with root login

but on my user login since i type a % it ceases to work until i type:
xmodmap -e "keycode 94 = less greater"
in command line (which it is a bit annoying)

i tried a lot of things: they r there (explanations in french but code is same)

if you have an answer to this thing it would far more comfortable to use...

On the other hand mepis is absolutly fantastic ! i got an heavy traumatic experience with Mdk... currently Linux seems far easier...

weird Pb with < > key

Well i found a very unelegant solution:

use Kalarm...
and configure it to send the command:

xmodmap -e "keycode 94 = less greater"

each minute from session connection.. it also works when relaunching computer...

The keys

Well, I think you have another workaround. Just go to the KDE Control Center (System->Settings->Control Center), activate xkb; choose your keyboard layout and ensure that you've got the 105 keys selected (and remove the US one, if you're not american); and choose nodeadkeys.

I think that should do it (It did for me!)
