Anyone find a way to get the keyboard numbers to work on the N810 within ScummVM?

Specifically I am trying to run Leisure Suit Larry and at the very beginning it asks for my age and I can't get the keyboard to output a number so I can enter my age.

Shame cause that would be a hoot to play.

Once I finally get my developer N810 (hopefully any day now) I will look into this. Some keymapping is not ideal for N810. But still the keys on keyboard should work. Oh BTW there is another active scummvm thread here http://www.internettablettalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7399&page=9 so you may continue there.

I don't have leisure suit larry, but with Monkey Island 2 I found that you have to use the Fn key like a shift-key, i.e. hold it down while typing the number. The normal click Fn then click the number, or double-click Fn then click lots of numbers doesn't work.

yeah that doesn't work. fn and a key or holding it and a key just doesnt work.

Aha. Had to turn on the onscreen keyboard to do it but it worked.

I had also gotten my Logitech Dinovo keyboard to work...but thats obviously less portable. Haha.

I haven't seen numbers / fn-key combinations work in any sdl game yet, fwiw.

Possibly ITOS is handling FN different from shift (which works)? Mysterious.
