Description Dominik Kozaczko 2006-05-06 01:24:12 UTC

I upgraded to X.org 7 and found out rather annoying thing with Polish keyboard layout.
Previously when I pressed dot on numerical keyboard I had a dot in terminal emulator window and a comma in OpenOffice Calc (comma is decimal separator in Poland). I found that behaviour very clever since it was very easy to write IP adresses with just one hand and still I could get correct numbers in Calc.

And now... after upgrade I get the Windows-like behaviour. Comma is printed everywhere! I'm used to the old layout. I tried to edit Xkb files but with no luck. Polish layout is modification of standard en_US keyboard but it doesn't modify the numpad dot.
