German keyboard working with rdesktop but not with WinXP TS Client.

Hi!

A user of xrdp reported this bug:
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=584666

In summary, the  ' <at> ' sign does not work on a  german keyboard with WinXP
TS  client but  works  fine with  "rdesktop  -k de".  Keymaps have  been
regenerated.

The bug report contains some interesting information like xev output but
I don't  know how  to solve  this problem. Any  idea? Debian  package is
based on a CVS snapshot of 2010 03 03.

Thanks.

Hi Vincent,

I know this bug and some month ago I've tried to track down what's going on 
there especially with a german mstsc under Windows XP, but unfortunately ran 
out of time.

So, reading your question I've restarted my analysis today and first of all I 
fetched a fresh update via CVS of my working dir (Gentoo X86_64 on an AMD 
Athlon 64 X2). After compiling and fighting some trouble with tightvnc (I've 
forgotten how to tell tightvnc the right font path via xrdp) I've connected 
with mstsc 6.0.6001 from my Windows XP Home Box to my Gentoo Box and what a 
surprize - all Alt-Gr-Characters were working correctly!

Then I've started up my debian sid box (unstable on Intel Pentium 4) and first 
"apt-get install xrdp" (0.5.0~20100303cvs-5) then "sudo /etc/init.d/xrdp 
start" and connected again from my Windows XP Box. As reported, most of Alt-
Gr-Chars were *NOT* working as expected. Next I've downloaded xrdp from source 
(CVS as of today), ./bootstrap, ./configure, fetched some missing pakets, 
./configure again, make, "sudo make install" and started xrdp in debug-mode  
(--nodaemon) from /usr/local/sbin (of course after terminating the debian 
version of xrdp). After connecting from my Win box, all Alt-Gr-Chars worked as 
expected in bash as in gedit. Rechecked in 'normal mode' still all Alt-Gr-Keys 
(literally  <at> €µ{[]}\~|) are working.

Having a deeper look with xev while connected with mstsc from Win XP to latest 
cvs-version on my debian box, I've still seen some strange things when 
pressing Alt-Gr-Key. I've noticed on my first analysis month ago, that there's 
one CONTROL_L too much which seem to lead to some kind of "Control- <at> ' or 
'Control-{' etc., which are not translatable. Now I see a "KeyPress event 
Control_L" followed by a "KeyRelease event Control_L" and then a "KeyPress 
event ISO-Level3_Shift", which seems to be the right switch for Alt-Gr-Chars. 
But the preceding press/release of Control_L is still a bit strange ...

Anyway, now it's working (at least on my boxes) and therefore I would suggest 
to update to the very latest CVS version, which seems to solve the problem 
with german ALT-Gr-Chars.

I'm curious: can someone sum up, what's being changed, so that Alt-Gr-Chars 
(on german keyboards) now working?

regards
Andreas

for the records:
AFAIS fix was introduced in vnc/vnc.c revision 1.44 on 17.03.2010 and it's 
working perfectly. Thanks Jay!

Yes, it is strange.  The MS client 'sometimes' sends a left control
before altgr.  I could not find any flags to tell if it is this
'virtual' control or not.  Below is a link to the change.
I was not sure if this fixed the problem and if it causes any side affect.

http://xrdp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xrdp/xrdp/vnc/vnc.c?r1=1.43&r2=1.44

If it fixes the problem for everyone I can put it in the 0.5 branch.

Jay

The windows 7 client should work with 0.5 of xrdp.
What version are you running?

I don't know about the iPad client.
Is that irdesktop?

This had no effect.  I checked out the sources, compiled them, installed them, then restarted the machine.  I
receive the same error message ("Because of a protocol error this session will be disconnected") at the
same point.

There don't appear to be any log entries anywhere in /var/log.  I did configure with --enable-debug, but it
seems to be of no use.

How can I troubleshoot this, please?  

Thank you.

Regards,
Rich
