RE: Re(2): [rdesktop-users] NumLock bug ?

[Casey A. S. <cs...@se...>]

I noticed that the numlock bug does not appear when running rdesktop
natively in X, but only when using Xnest with no keymap declaration (not
needed because X takes care of that) in my case.

However, it is impossible for me to use rdesktop in this fashion because
rdesktop likes to capture my Ctrl-T (command initiator used in ratpoison
window manager) keypresses, so I can't change windows (ratpoison does
support the mouse at all).

Rdesktop is the only application I've seen this behavior in - Generally, I
can just use Ctrl-T, T to pass a Ctrl-T to the application, so there is no
need for it to exclusively grab the keyboard.

Perhaps the keyboard grabbing is useful in some scenarios, but I think it
should only happen if an option is passed to rdesktop.
