| + | - Keyboard mappings get messed up. To fix this, I used two separate hints. The first is from [[http://daniel-lange.com/archives/45-Fixing-FreeNX-NoMachine-NX-keyboard-glitches-e.g.-ALTGr.html|Daniel Lange]]: First, on your mac, open an xterm (by starting up xquartz, which you can do easily by starting the x2goclient). In that terminal do | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | xmodmap -pke > localxmodmap | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | Then copy (e.g. by sftp or scp) that localxmodmap to your server. In your home directory, check if there is already a .Xmodmap file. If there is, you may need to merge the new one with it - sorry, can't help with that. If there isn't, copy localxmodmap to .Xmodmap. However you're not finished. Now (thanks to [[http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7018775/keymap-issues-with-nx-from-mac-os-x-lion-to-ubuntu|ato on stackoverflow]]), you need to append to the .Xmodmap file: | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | ! | ||
| + | ! Now reset all the modifiers too | ||
| + | ! | ||
| + | clear shift | ||
| + | clear lock | ||
| + | clear control | ||
| + | clear mod1 | ||
| + | clear mod2 | ||
| + | clear mod3 | ||
| + | clear mod4 | ||
| + | clear mod5 | ||
| + | add shift = Shift_L Shift_R | ||
| + | add lock = Caps_Lock | ||
| + | add control = Control_L Control_R | ||
| + | add mod1 = Alt_L Alt_R | ||
| + | add mod2 = Meta_L Meta_R | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | So far, almost all applications seem to work with this. The exception is virtualbox, which still has (for me) corrupted keyboard settings. | ||
