Package: chromium
Version: 90.0.4430.212-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Thanks for all your work on packaging chromium, I imagine that this
is a big job!
My keyboard lacks an AltGr key, so I use xmodmap to turn my useless
Menu key into an AltGr like so:
setxkbmap dvorak
xmodmap -e 'keycode 135 = Mode_switch' \
-e 'remove mod5 = Mode_switch'
xmodmap -e 'add mod3 = Mode_switch'
I have a script containing the above lines, though sometimes it's
"us" instead of "dvorak".
This worked well for about 5 years.
I'm not sure if it's the setxkbmap or the xmodmap, but when I run
that script _after_ chromium starts, then chromium starts ignoring
my keybinding for the menu key, and I can no longer type accented
characters, because I get a weird menu instead.
If I close chromium and open it up again, it's fixed (I can again
use that key as Mode_switch) until next time I switch to qwerty and
back (and run those xmodmap commands.)
When chromium is bugging, other programs are functioning correctly,
eg I can still type my accented characters with my menu key
remapped to alt-gr in other programs (I tested lowriter, st, atril,
and filezilla).
Thanks!
- Jason
