- Message-id: <E1CRq2o-00038H-0e@localhost.localdomain>
Package: xlibs-data
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8
Severity: minor
On a japanese keyboard, there is one key of the Yen sign, and one for
the backslash. While in EUC-JP and SHIFT-JIS encoding, Yen and backslash
are mapped to the same character, it is not the case in UTF-8.
Thus, i'd like the Yen key to return a Yen character, not a backslash.
Keycode for the yen key: keycode 133 (keysym 0x5c, backslash)
Keycode for the backslash key: keycode 123 (keysym 0x5c, backslash)
Mike
Note that on the same keyboard, The windows key gives keycode 115
(keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), which i think is not expected. Shall I file a
new bug for that ?

Okay, there is actually a setup where it works:
setxkbmap -layout "jp(OADG109A)" -model jp106
