Sounds like the same problem that afflicts sawfish. It may be that openbox is buggy. Have you read the entry "My keyboard configuration worked with XFree86 4.2; why is it messed up now?" in the Debian X FAQ? http://necrotic.deadbeast.net/xsf/XFree86/trunk/debian/local/FAQ.xhtml > This seems to be a debian bug, as several xfree changelogs referred to > that bug as fixed.

You may interested in directing the openbox hackers to following fairly detailed message about the issue: http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2004/09/msg00306.html > Additionnaly the debian BTS seems to no longer carry that bug, even in > the "resolved" list. The Debian BTS has retained archived reports for several years now, only closed reports from a very long time ago are no longer available. > Is someone aware of the situation?
