Bug ID: 371877
Summary: key combos not being properly passed into
keyboard-captured apps
Product: kwin
Version: 5.8.2
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: am...@xram.net
Target Milestone: ---
When running a program that captures the keyboard to redirect to a remote
device (virtualbox, remmina rdp connection, teamviewer), alt+{key} and
meta+{key} combos aren't being properly ignored by the host. Pressing just the
meta key causes it to fire on both, but any key combo only seems to pass the
modifier key (win+d will minimize all of my local windows, but if I switch back
to an windows remmina session, the start menu is up -- meta key fired remotely,
but no 'd')
I'm running the latest install of KDE Neon (27/10/16), after upgrading from
Kubuntu 16.10 (so KDE 5.7.5, I believe) which did not exhibit this issue.
It's great the meta key now pops up the app launcher without any workarounds
required, but if this is the cost... :(
I had originally posted this under plasmashell, but the devs said it sounded
like a kwin issue. Sorry if this is the wrong product/component for this
issue.
