Sparc keyboard mapping does not work with xorg-x11 binary package from GRP CD. Problem occurs when X is run using the startx command. Keyboard works fine on the basic command line text screen. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Gentoo Sparc64 2005.0 Linux 2. Install sparc64 GRP CD as per installation instructions. 3. Enter startx to run X. 3. Tried multiple xorg.conf setups and nothing worked. Actual Results: Keyboard keys did not produce the correct letter. Expected Results: Keyboard mapping should be corrected. Forcing a recompile of xorg-x11 corrects the problem. Compiled the source code provided with the 2005.0 and/or GRP distribution. Did not download any source code.
sparc team: was this fixed with 2005.1?
Yeah, GRP for 2005.0 was built against a 2.6 kernel which caused issues with 2.4.
I apologise for this bugspam, but I wish to close this product, so I need to move all the bugs.
