[FreeNX-kNX] AltGr key doesn't work

[Tim Haegele]

Hi,

we have the same problem on some Laptops, but almost all are working perfectly 
well, that is with the identical setup. The only differnces are the type of 
the Laptop (using XP).

I have tried the most recent snapshots of freenx and the newest clients a few 
weeks ago, but the problem still exists.

Server is Debian Sarge.


Greetings, Tim
