Hi Britgirl,

Unfortunately, I get the same results.

Short summary:
In the NoMachine main window, when selecting the session, keys | and \ works as expected. In the Centos session, these keys do not work any longer. From a PC, accessing the same session, this is not a problem.

Thanks.

Yes, still using Workstation.

No difference between virtual desktop and physical display. When running [removed] the keyboard is as expected = good.

Hi again,

Sorry for the delay with this. Still, appreciate your assistance.

Here are the outputs:

c04 % setxkbmap -print

xkb_keymap {

xkb_keycodes  { include “evdev+aliases(qwerty)” };

xkb_types     { include “complete”      };

xkb_compat    { include “complete”      };

xkb_symbols   { include “pc+se+inet(evdev)”     };

xkb_geometry  { include “pc(pc104)”     };

};

Hi,

Unfortunately the right side does not work either. While the left side Option key + 7 gives nothing (hoped for “|”) the left side Option +7 yeilds “{“.

Thanks,
Tomas.

[TomasM]

@Britgirl: Thanks for the update and effort!

@Tor: No. Keys work fine on MacOS but differently when using NoMachine.

 

Regards,
Tomas.

Hi Britgirl,

Many thanks for your answer. Yesterday I found that it is related to the external keyboard (Logitech MX Keys for Mac). When I use the MBP keyboard, all is fine. Still a problem and grateful for any assistance. A reminder, partly to myself, both keyboards work when writing on the mac display (like this text), it is just in the NoMachine Linux environment.

When I use the internal keyboard and press (and get) < 

KeyPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
root 0x114, subw 0x0, time 4016131838, (109,89), root:(109,112),
state 0x0, keycode 94 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XFilterEvent returns: False

When I use the external keyboard and press the < key (and get §):

KeyPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
root 0x114, subw 0x0, time 4016229917, (55,105), root:(682,887),
state 0x0, keycode 49 (keysym 0xa7, section), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (a7) “§”
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (a7) “§”
XFilterEvent returns: False

If I do the same sequence using a VNC session,  I get the following, first with the built-in keyboard:

KeyPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x1600001,
root 0x395, subw 0x0, time 4016999651, (74,50), root:(563,463),
state 0x0, keycode 94 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XFilterEvent returns: False

And with the external keyboard (VNC, pressing <)

KeyPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x1600001,
root 0x395, subw 0x0, time 4017265012, (61,108), root:(550,521),
state 0x0, keycode 94 (keysym 0x3c, less), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (3c) “<”
XFilterEvent returns: False

I attached the output of the xmodmap command.

Any clues?

Thanks again,
Tomas.
