[FreeNX-kNX] bad old keyboard issues

[Tobias Geiger]

Hallo again,

i have a small addition of infos to make:

The same behaviour (US-Keyboardlayout when connection with Windows-NX Client, 
allthough no OS or Keyboard involved is English) occurs when connecting to a 
RDP Host instead of a VNC Host. So no matter if VNC or RDP, just FYI

My personal guess (and afai can see the only logical conclustion) is , that 
the NX Client on Windows is somehow broken regarding keyboard layout settings 
(perhaps only in conjunction with freenx, not with commercial?!)

but thats just my 2 cents...

anyway: very annoying problem
i'd love to hear your opinion regarding possible solutions/workarounds

Thanks in advance

Tobias
