[JWM] AltGr (keycode 113) is lost (Debian testing version)

[Frank Siebler]

Hi,

here is (alas not a real solution, but) a workaround that has solved the
AltGr issue on my system.

Check the key bindings in jwm's configuration file. Most likely you have
the following line there:

  <Key mask="A" key="Tab">nextstacked</Key>

If so, then replace it by this one:

  <Key mask="A" key="Tab">next</Key>

Exit jwm completely (restarting is not enough!), start X again, and
AltGr should work.

The configuration file is either ~/.jwmrc or, if that doesn't exist,
system.jwmrc somewhere else.

Best regards, and please report whether it works.

    Frank

Hello,

I have not found a search option in the
archive of the mailing list, so here is my
question:
When I start JWM via startx (or GDM)
the keycode 113 is lost.
When I start first FVWM and change
afterwards to JWM it is there.

I'm not able to build an UpTo Date
Debian compatible JWM out of the sources, so I can not say, if it is
only a problem of the testing version of Debian (JWM 2.0.1-1).

Is there a patch available?

Kindest regards,
