Title: Keyboard Issue on Linux
Post by: numberR on January 16, 2007, 05:00:41
hi all,

i was testing out my LWJGL stuff on Linux(up-to-date FC 6) and found that it does not get any input from keyboard(mouse is fine).
i wondered if this is because of me, and tried org.lwjgl.test.input.KeyboardTest, and it didn't work either.

this could be an issue specific to FC 6 or X.org that FC 6 is using,
but is there any known keyboard issue on Linux with LWJGL RC1?

thanks.

sorry, i forgot to post information about X.org on FC6.

xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-47.4.fc6

it seems that it is X.org 1.1.1-47 with some patches applied by FC team.

KeyboardTest works fine on XUbuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft. Unfortunately I have no idea how to find out which version of X.org the Ubuntu version is based on...

We are not aware of any keyboard issues relating to missing input ?

yea, org.lwjgl.test.input.KeyboardTest starts up fine, but pressing arrow keys don't do anytihng.
java environment on my FC 6 is following:

java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode, sharing)

since Kylearan noticed it works fine on Ubuntu,
it's probably something to do with FC 6... any FC 6 user around?
