Hi,
I installed Ubuntu 8.04 a few days ago and since that, xbrlapi doesn't work
properly. When a type a 'a' on the braille keyboard for example, it outputs
a 'q' in the X applications, as if xbrlapi didn't make the appropriate
conversion it usually makes when using a non-US keyboard.
As I don't remember exactly when I updated my brltty SVN trunk for the last
time, the problem could also be due to a recent change in the xbrlapi source
code, even if I am pretty sure that the problem occured after the update of
my Ubuntu system.
I know that Samuel had patched xbrlapi about one year ago to introduce a
mechanism allowing to resolve a brltty keycode to an X keysym for non-US
keyboard layouts, and it wolked perfectly until now.
I really don't know anything about X11 so I haven't tried to debug things
myself. So just tell me what I have to do to help you investigating this issue.
Thanks for your help Samuel and others,
