Subject: Bug#29718: keyboard deadkeys disabled unless LC_ALL set
Date: 25 Jul 2001 09:41:09 -0000
From: rcasha@waldonet.net.mt
To: submit@bugs.kde.org

Package: kde
Version: KDE 2.2.0 Beta1
Severity: normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

My keyboard layout was working except for the deadkeys - these were disabled
 (working as ordinary keys). The situation only occurs with kde 2.2b1. In KDE
 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 the layout worked correctly, and even now if I start
 XWindows with just xterm it works.

I found out - quite by accident - that if I set LC_ALL=mt_MT before starting
 KDE it works in KDE2.2b1 as well. I have now set this in my .bashrc so I'm
 working OK but most users won't know how to do that.

I don't know which is the exact module within kde that handles the keyboard
 though. If I submitted this to the wrong one could you please pass it to
 whoever handles the keyboard support?
