Is there anything new regarding the keyboard problem
of the XPhoton?
There was a "We are working on it"-Statement from
QSSL two years ago ... (MessageID: <8uuugm$av7$1@nntp.qnx.com>)

Now that we've opened the source, we're no longer working on it,There was a "We are working on it"-Statement from

I only start /usr/bin/ph ... what would be a good idea of 'somefile'?What does your keymap file look like?

If you're feeling energetic
and you don't care about keyboard input
from phditto/phindows, you could change the source to actually use the
scan code from the input events. phditto/phindows input events don't
have scan codes and X servers only pass a single byte of 'detail' around
internally for keyboard events...
I've attached the sample.keys file from the source archive. It justGarry Turcotte <garry@qnx.com> wrote:
