[Fink-users] Kde, key bindings, apple pbook g4

[Mike C. <ra...@ro...>]

Hello happy kde users on mac!

I just installed the new kde 3.1 stuff from fink and it's working fine. The only problem 
that I have is that the "*" key does not work! For some reason, in KWrite, Kate and other 
typing apps (but NOT konsole), the "shift-8" key functions like "shift-Right" and selects 
to the end of the line. I like Kate...it's nice, but if I get a select to end of line instead of 
"*", I can't really write programs.

Since Konsole seems to work, I imagine that there's some kind of KDE setting that would 
change this keymapping. But I don't know KDE very well at all. I've tried to mess with the 
Keyboard shortcuts for Kate, taking away every key that looks like shift-Right or "*", but 
no good.

any ideas?

frustrated and using 'mi' now,
