[Bug 379542] Re: Gnome in Jaunty remaps keyboard keys

[Remi Gauvin]

** Summary changed:

- Gnome in Jaunty remaks keyboard keys
+ Gnome in Jaunty remaps keyboard keys

** Description changed:

  When I launch gnome from a tightvncserver session (which is the default
  when you launch vncserver on Ubuntu, or if I log in to a gnome session
  via gdm with a -query localhost), once gnome has started, any key I
  press on the client is re-mapped to a completely different key.  This
  only happens if I'm using tightvncserver.  xvnc4server does not suffer
  from this.  I also have no problems starting other desktop environments
  (like xface, for example.)
+ 
+ Update: after following up some other problems, I find that there are
+ severe problems with gnome-settings-daemon running in a vnc sessions.
+ The problems appear to be with the gnome-settings, and can be worked
+ around by disabling the keyboard plugin with gconf-editor.
