OK, the following patch seems to do the job:ĭiff -ru xkeyboard-config-1.0~cvs.20070721_old/keycodes/macintosh xkeyboard-config-1.0~cvs.20070721/keycodes/macintosh > in the keycodes file (to include base list of keycodes). If eisu and kana have their own keycodes, I think that then we can easily ask input methods to emulate the macintosh behavior. The PC keys act more like toggles, where the same key alternates the modes. On macintosh, kana swiches to japanese input, and eisu switches to latin characters. > What kind of behavior would you expect from the Kana key? Shall I repoen this bug first ? The help I need for you is to tell me if I should try to modify the jp106 keyboard as in this bug, or if I should try to create a file in the macintosh_vndr directory, and if I have to touch files from other directories. The first obstacle is that there is no such file: (do you remember ) Luckily, since this I again have access to a proper mac keyboard.

So if I understand correctly, I should produce a file which imports the mac japanese keyboard and modifies it. The HK lite2 for mac (japanese edition) does not exactly reproduce this, at least the eject, eisu and kana keys give 170, 131 and 129 instead of 204, 210 and 209. > what "proper macintosh keyboard" would be in that context.Īlthough it should be better checked with other keyboards (I can ask this on a ppc mailing list), I expect all the japanese keyboards shipped with iMacs (at least the G5 ones) to give the same keycodes.

What kind of help do you need? I am not sure I understand
