Summary: keysym lookups for EastEuropean Langauages

Initial Comment:
I am assuming this site is for kvm-60-3.fc8.src.rpm

The Hungarian keyboard - along with others - has several keys which provide three characters rather than the standard two. e.g. n provides n N and }.

The third symbol is acquired using a meta or Level3 key. Gnome allows the mapping of any of the control/alt/windows keys for this purpose. However, the mapping is to ISO_Level3_Shift which is missing from vnc_keysym.h.

Additionally Hungarian requires the use of odoubleacute and udoubleacute (latin2 extensions) both of which are missing.

./qemu/vnc_keysym.h

> { "udoubleacute",         0x1fb},

> {"ISO_Level3_Shift", 0xfe03}, /* ISO_Level3 */

The use of these requires additional changes to 

./qemu/keymaps/modifiers
./qemu/keymaps/hu

... but these can easily be changed locally, whereas the above require code changes & compile. I will enter proposed config changes as a seperate bug.

I guess this is for any version for Linux, but specifically Fedora 8 i386.

If this should instead be a bug against qemu please say.

Hi,

Going through old bugs and noticing that nobody replied to this one
before.

If I understand your report correctly, you would like those keycodes added
to qemu?

It looks like something that should pretty straight forward, so if you are
up for it please post a patch to qemu-devel@xxxxxxxxxx or if you need help
with it let me know and I shall be happy to assist. I just don't have
access to a Hungarian keyboard.

I did notice the the ISO_Level3_Shift part is in.

Cheers,
Jes
