keyboard layout wouldn't toggle in X-session

Hello, I don't know whether the problem is common but I have googled half  
a dozen of similar questions... And one solution at  
http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID13/301.html, by Andrey_T,  
which is translated here as following:

===
"I built Thinstation with russian locale to get it working as RDP client  
and browser. Have ttf fonts installed. Now the Firefox shows russian  
webpages correctly but I cannot input russian symbols in X-windows.  
Console Ctrl-Shift toggles me to jabberwocky symbols (console fonts are  
not installed).

[...skipped...]

A solution appeared to be quite simple (but it's time-consuming to guess  
about): they use compiled keymaps in Thinstation. It's necessary to  
execute "xkbcomp -xkm $DISPLAY", rename the result of the command -  
server-0.xkm - to ru.xkm and change the original ru.xkm to it - and all  
will work as in your system.

2 problems have been revealed:
1) cannot get grey numbers after NumLock. Didn't investigate it, just  
saved non-compiled keymap (xkbcomp -xkb $DISPLAY) and edited PgUp, PgDown,  
etc. to digits there, then compiled it (xkbcomp server-0.xkb). Cannot type  
non-digits now.
2) when toggled to russian keymap, rdesktop doesn't transmit keystrokes to  
a server. It's not a very decent solution but I've just assigned the  
toggling to right Ctrl. So the toggling combination is not coincide to any  
server's one, and more: it's good because 2-key combinations not always  
work in thinstation."

keyboard layout wouldn't toggle in X-session

Gents, please let me know if my previous message on the subject was  
someways unclear or non-informative.

Regards,
Michael

Hello,

The multiline nx-options does not work, this is a path to repair this.

HDUPDATE changes

Hi,

    I use several TS clients and would like to change a little the HDUPDATE 
behaviour.

    Is it posible to do a reboot after a successful update of files, 
modifying the script ?  (I know it is posible adding a 'reboot' command on 
the script; but I want to be sure that it would not broke something else on 
the startup process)

   Why is not this the default action ?    If not, a varible 
'HDUPDATE_REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS = Yes' to control this would be fine.

    One more thing, some tiny computers use Slave IDE for DiskOnModule 
chips.   I propose to modify the hdupdate script to search for the vmlinuz 
file on all channels (/dev/hda, /dev/hdb, /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd).

    Thanks !

Re: HDUPDATE changes

While we're at it I'm going to look at changing HDUPDATE to include
using the SAMBA client to get the files - the busybox tftp client is
rubbish and scp is not proving as reliable as I'd have hoped.

Unichrome driver Request

I was wondering if the next release of Thinstation 2.2.1 will include support for Unichrome/Pro support. 
Since Epia board are a good choice for building Thin client and new boards are coming out with CN400, CN700
chipset it will be nice touse something else then VESA.

I don't think we need the Openchrome or Unichrome.sf.net driver just the Xorg one should be just fine.

TS ships with all stock x.org drivers. Unfortunately the unichrome
driver isn't a part of R7.1, the most recent stable release. See

Look in the Feature Requests on sourceforge. I've put a patch to use  
wget for the config files, and I think we need to keep the list of  
'options' for getting items from servers consistent (i.e. add wget to  
HDUPDATE & samba to the config files).

Thanks

PS. If you publish it, I'll update the config patch after I return  
from holidays)

Having tackled this for DIET-PC recently, I can tell you that for CN700 
support you will need the latest Openchrome driver from CVS, and that to 
get working PAL TV modes you will also have to find and apply patches 
from their mailing list (November 06, I think?) that have not yet been 
committed to CVS.  Unichrome doesn't have CN700 support yet (or didn't 
last time I checked) because the project is purist and doesn't want to 
use VBE as a crutch (which will ultimately yield a better result, but 
will take longer to develop).  FYI, the via driver bundled with Xorg is 
a slightly-older-than-current copy of the Unichrome driver.

CN400 has been around for ages and is supported by pretty much anything, 
including the Xorg bundled driver.  If you are considering buying a Via 
embedded unit, get something that is CN400 based, because the hardware 
MPEG decoder on the CN400 is much better (2048x2048 max, AGP DMA, MPEG-2 
plus limited MPEG-4 support) than the one on the CN700 (1024x1024 max, 
no AGP DMA, MPEG-2 only).
