Description thomas kerkhove 2006-11-01 06:03:05 UTC
The support or AZERTY keyboards (be-latin1) isn't really as it should be.

I'm having trouble gaming, and in irssi.

I need to press SHIFT+ALT+number instead of just ALT+number to change windows, 
and in gaming i need to use SHIFT aswell, and hope it works, because some of them do not work at all, and show up as a completely different character.

User fragalot requested reassignment on IRC. Assigning to wranglers, with the hope that they can make sense of it.

post a patch to the map then

I think five years is a more than reasonable time to wait for Mr. Kerkhove to provide a patch to the map. And nobody else has complained about the be-latin1 AZERTY keymap in that time. I would presume that it has been fixed upstream.

I recommend that this one be closed. It is old and has been completely inactive the entire time.
