While using an OpenGL application all visible widgets flicker except the OpenGL application window itself. Window manager portions of the OpenGL application still flicker. ie title bar, borders, and menus. In addition, the new version of xf86-input-keyboard does not allow pressing a key down for multiple presses of that key. Each press must be individual. Is that a design decision or a bug? Reproducible: Always
I don't think that auto-repeat problem has anything to do with xf86-input-keyboard as I don't have that driver installed but suffering from the same problem I use the xf86-input-evdev for all my input devices, such as keyboard and mouse. I think the non working autorepeat feature has its root in the xorg-server-1.4 or protocol package excerpt from the Xorg.log (near the end): [snip] (II) evdev brain: Rescanning devices (3). SetClientVersion: 0 9 SetKbdSettings - type: 1020 rate: 30 delay: 500 snumlk: 0 [snip]
I'm also having problems with my keyboard and xserver-1.4*. I usually exchange Escape and Caps_Lock with xmodmap, but when I start X, the Caps_Lock is not cleared . If I do 'xmodmap ~/.xmodmap' then it works ok. Everything works fine with xorg-server-1.3*
I also have the xmodmap problem. In addition to it, "ctrl:swapcaps" or "ctrl:nocaps" works, but after lauching vmware it goes mess. I found this bug reports and a patch. It looks like working well. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12858
Looks like this fix will be in 1.4.1, to be released very soon.
(In reply to comment #4) > Looks like this fix will be in 1.4.1, to be released very soon. Heh, very soon is a relative term, apparently... :) Is 1.4.0.90 any better by chance?
Much newer versions of xorg-server are now in portage, which should have the linked patch. If any of you still has issues, please don't hesitate to reopen this bug. Thanks
