I'm a big fan of fvwm on my system at work (IBM RISC/6000 AIX 3.xxxx,
fvwm 1.x). I'm running linux on a Pentium system at home and I'm having
trouble getting some parts of my work configuration to work at home.
Most notably, I use key mappings similar to some discussed in the fvwm
mailing list archives to move about using the keypad:
Key KP_7 A CS GotoPage 0 0
Key KP_8 A CS GotoPage 1 0
Key KP_9 A CS GotoPage 2 0
Key KP_4 A CS GotoPage 0 1
Key KP_5 A CS GotoPage 1 1
Key KP_6 A CS GotoPage 2 1
Key KP_1 A CS GotoPage 0 2
Key KP_2 A CS GotoPage 1 2
Key KP_3 A CS GotoPage 2 2
However, I haven't been able to get these mappings to work on either
fvwm 1.24 or fvwm 2.0. I can get the GotoPage function to work when
mapped to another key, so I'm suspicious of my
/usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h. The relevant lines from this file are:
#define XK_KP_0 0xFFB0
#define XK_KP_1 0xFFB1
#define XK_KP_2 0xFFB2
#define XK_KP_3 0xFFB3
#define XK_KP_4 0xFFB4
#define XK_KP_5 0xFFB5
#define XK_KP_6 0xFFB6
#define XK_KP_7 0xFFB7
#define XK_KP_8 0xFFB8
#define XK_KP_9 0xFFB9
I don't completely understand what these lines represent. Is it
possible that there is a mismatch between this file and my keyboard (an
early IBM 101 key keyboard originally from an XT-286)?
I am a nearly the latest linux kernal, but I'm probably a bit back level
on both fvwm versions.
I can't think of anything else, which is, of course, why I'm asking.
Thanks in advance.
