hi Britgirl,
both sides client and server have 6.9.2
characters (client = linux-xubuntu) = (server = raspi4 debian buster)
ö =; Ö=: ä=’ Ä=” ß=- ü[ ü={ :=>
on the Raspi …Raspberry-Pi-Konfiguration :Â / Lokalisierung / Taststur festlegen:Â “Generic 105-key PC(intl) /German/German
is set.
but(!) if i use sudo raspi-config:
4) LocalisationOptions… / I3 Change Keyboard Layout … then “reloading keymap” is shown and  then it breaks.
