I have nailed it down. It is indeed not an XGGI bug, but something with
LibGII or rather the kernel mapping:

I experimented some and found that it would work, when I pressed the keys in
the counter-Intuitive order: BackSpace - Ctrl - Alt

GGI_DEBUGging it found:

LibGII: Linux-kbd: NOSUCHKEY
LibGII: KEY-DN button=0x0e modifiers=0x06 sym=0xe000 label=0x0008

I assume the previous version used the labels instead of the symbols or
something.

I fixed it by adding

control alt     keycode  14 = Delete

to my keymap. We should either document that, or maybe use the labels.

Is there a specific reason not to use the labels ?


CU, ANdy
