Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

really? well how come pushing 'up' in sam & max pauses the game then? i am stuck at the part where you're in the rotating restraunt on top of the twine ball and you're supposed to use the arrow keys to aim the binoculars, no matter how many times i hit the d-pad right it keeps rotating left at the same speed.

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

never mind, i read two more walkthroughs and the 3rd one says right clicking (tab) on the switch, dunno why the first one was flat-out wrong, maybe different versions of the game or something. thanks anyways.

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

hmmm i tried xkbd as well as xvkbd and both have the same problem in dosbox: when i click "1" I get a "q", when i click "2" i get "w" etc.
does anyone have the same problem? or a solution for it maybe?

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

I'm assuming you are using Addison's version of the xkbd keyboard? That seems to work for me. If Addison is still hanging around these forums I'm sure he has a solution for your problem.

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

Im using the version from http://pupnik.de/xkbd.html without a mapping file. but as i said, its the same with xkbd as well as with xvkbd: they both produce exactly the same results, so i guess it's a problem with dosbox as it works as expected in a normal shell.

Hey Pushwall! Long time, heh? :)

Well, I posted this some time ago.

So far, I've never had a problem with any of them.

Just remember to install Bash2. Don't know why but it helps.

Keyboard Collection

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

Wow Addison I missed your updated keyboard collection. Very nice indeed! :cool: Good to see you're still alive and kicking. :D

Re: xkbd for X11 on screen input
 

Well, actually I do have bash2 installed. And xkbd works correctl in bash, it just doesn't in dosbox.
I forgot to mention that I'm using an N810 with a german keyboard layout. I also tried switching to an american locale, but to no avail. The problem remains the same, no matter which locale im using.

Heya Pushwall! Yep, still kicking it. :D

I've got the next two weeks off where I'll be abusing my drinking privileges daily then I'll be gone again until June.

As for branitar, could you post a quick screenshot of Dosbox for me?

I think I might know what your problem is.

Thanks!

no, i dont run dosbox in fullscreen mode ;)
