Bug ID: 489779
Summary: Alt-Gr modifier not working in remote desktop clients
using Wayland on client side
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: t.b...@keh-berlin.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
While using remote desktop clients like VNC (through KRDC), xfreerdp or X2Go,
I'm unable to type backslashes, at-signs and everything else using the "Alt Gr"
key on my German layout keyboards.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get a keyboard with German layout.
2. Connect somewhere(TM) with VNC, RDP or X2Go.
3. Try to type an email address through the remote connection.
OBSERVED RESULT
Unable to type \@²³¼½¬{[]¨ among others needing the "Alt Gr" modifier. It just
prints nothing. Not even the second key pressed along the modifier. E.g. for
typing an "@" sign I need to press "Alt Gr" and "Q". On the remote end I
neither see a "@" nor a lower case "Q".
EXPECTED RESULT
I expected non-US keyboard layouts to just work(TM).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: tested 6.1 and 6.6
KDE Plasma: tested 6.0.5 and 6.1.1
