Hi,
I use a french keyboard with dead keys on an ASUS laptop. These keys are
ignored under kde, so I get ^e instead of =EA.
I have searched hours long where it could come from, and I have found
following clues:
- When I launch konsole from another konsole, dead keys work in the new
konsole but still not in other applications.
- When I launch konsole/konqueror/... from kicker, root menu
(right click on the wallpaper) dead keys won't work.
- When I start xterm (from konsole or kicker), dead keys work in this
xterm
- When I launch kdeinit, dead keys work for this session in all new
applications. Old applications (started before kdeinit) still don't
have dead keys. kdeinit gives a lot of warnings because of undefined
mimetypes but that's all :
$ kdeinit
kdeinit: Shutting down running client.
---------------------------------
It looks like dcopserver is already running. If you are sure
that it is not already running, remove /home/tibob/.DCOPserver_topaze__0
and start dcopserver again.

kbuildsycoca: WARNING: 'OpenOffice.org1.1/writer.desktop' specifies
undefined mimetype/servicetype 'application/x-doc'
- When launching konsole from the text console (ctrl-alt-F1), dead keys
won't work even if kdeinit has been started before.
- Reinstalling kde after purging configuration files won't help
- Dead keys work perfectly on my desktop computer, but I can't figure
where the difference is.
- This is not a user configuration problem as I tried if it would work
with blank new users. It doesn't :-/
I'm unsure this is the right package to post this bug report. kicker was
another candidate, but as the problem also exists with the root menu, I
preferred reporting this in the packege kdeinit belongs to.
I apologise if I am at the wrong place, please do not hesitate to
redirect this report to the right place !
Thanks for your help !
Robert

Hi,
dead keys work again, probably because a new version of KDE, so I close
the bug I submited.
Cheers,
Robert Ch=E9ramy
