Title:         After upgrading from various versions << 4.2.1 keyboard does not work properly
Ticket ID:     #573
Ticket URL:    http://bugs.pld.org.pl/?bug=573
Package:       XFree86-4.2.0-5
Distribution:  PLD-Ra.main
Category:      doesn't work as it should
Current state: opened
Text:

On various machines after upgrade from 4.x-versions the following symptoms appear:

*)Inbound connections (via XDMCP exported X Servers) have broken Backspace key (including DEL), only Strg-H still works
*)Outgoing connections to other machines (via ssh) on Servers running XFree 3.x or no X at all the grey arrow keys are not working, they produce letters instead (A B C and D). If I start an xterm on those machines, then they work again.

Since 4.2.1 was a security update not much should have changed. Maybe the X maintainer can have a look if some keydefinitions are subtle changed ?

Thanks.
