Hello

I have some trouble with keyboard when using VNC console to access domU via dom0 vfb console

- dom0 : Debian Lenny 5.0 + xen 3.2.1 kernel package
- domU : CentOS 5.4 / RHEL 5.4
- VNC clients used : vncviewer (windows & linux), tsclient


Alt-Gr Key doesn't work in VNC console (it's annoying to access some usefuls characters like '|' '@' '~' on french keyboard)


my config file

vfb = [ 'type=vnc,vncpasswd=xxxxx,vnclisten=0.0.0.0,vncdisplay=1' ]
keymap="fr"

I can't set keymap inside vfb parameter; if so i've got this error :

"Error: configuration option keymap unknown to vfbs"

notes :

1) with installing a vncserver inside the CentOS domU and using the same VNC clients, Alt-Gr works fine ! so it seem to be a problem with xen's vncserver ?

2) no problem with Alt-Gr key via xvnc0 console or via ssh access too



Thank you for your help.

Arnaud
