[FreeNX-kNX] Keyboard issues in RDP-Sessions

Hello,

following Setup:

NXClient: Windows 2000 Prof, NXClient 2.1.0-6, German keyboard layout

NXServer: Opensuse 10.1 (x86_64), NX-1.5.0-65.1, FreeNX-0.5.0-16.1
installed from: http://repos.opensuse.org/NX/SUSE_Linux_10.1/

Applied backingstore-patch from:
http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=FreeNX_FAQ/Problem_Solving


In KDE-Sessions the keyboard works perfectly, even the AltGr-Key *1

But if I configure a RDP session connecting to a Win2k3-Terminalserver,
I can´t get the German keyboard layout to work.

Changing "Keep current keyboard setting" to "Use other layout:
German(Germany)" in the client doesn´t help. Neither does adding "-k de"
to AGENT_EXTRA_OPTIONS_RDP in node.conf. *2

What else can I try?



*1 Note: after suspend&resume of a KDE-session AltGr stops working until
"setxkbmap -model pc105 de" is issued.

*2 Note: running "nxdesktop -k de" within the KDE session works and
gives me the correct keyboard mappings.
