I cannot have "left arrow" and "up arrow" on the "down arrow" button. I canīt get it to work, like it does on the european keyboards, so the "down arrow" gives left when pushed and "up" when fn+down is used. My current setting could of course be changed to "down" and "up"
I canīt have "right arrow" and "down" on the "right arrow" button because of the limitation above. I canīt get it to work, but you could change my current settings to have "left" and "right" on this button.
Switching between icelandic and english keyboard is as simple as pushing ctrl and space at the same time
Maybe you could try with "arrows_2btns" as a basis and overwrite it for the 4 buttons version? Not sure if it will work but may be worth a try...
... with the objective to have Tab at Shift-Spacebar and Delete at Shift-Backspace and FN-Backspace.
This all works as expected in e.g. the Notes app, but in the X Terminal:
- the Tab doesn't perform the expected auto-completion function, as the Tab on touchscreen does;
- Shift-Backspace doesn't work; instead it shows "2~";
- however, FN-Backspace works!

[QUOTE=olighak;478423]DO NOT FOLLOW MY STEPS FOR NOW. YOUR PHONE WILL TURN INTO A BRICK AT NEXT REBOOT. I HAVE BRICKED 5 N900's SO FAR IN 5 ATTEMPTS, THAT'S A SUCCESSFUL BRICKING PERCENTAGE OF 100%. I'M INVESTIGATING THE PROBLEM WHICH SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO CHANGES MADE IN FIRMWARE FROM WEEK 51.
Hi Olighak
Is it still unsafe to apply your fix for the Icelandic keyboard ?, I really want to get this working as you describe it

Applying "broken" rx-51 file and then executing 'setxkbmap XX' command (XX = your language) doesn't throw any errors? My bet is that there is some typo in rx-51 file that prevents from successful processing, which I think should be picked on-the-spot by running command as above, instead of rebooting and bricking device.

In 'vi' it gives similar problems.
Anyone knows what's happening?
Since shift is pressed, the shell (or vi) actually sees shift+del and shift+tab. I can't think of a simpler solution than to use fn for those keys instead of shift.
Has anyone successfully mapped "Return" to a key. I have a couple of console apps (rtorrent and cmus) that seem to require "Return" rather than KP_Enter, I tried modifying the xterm bar and put the following in rx-51
Regarding bricking, it won't happen for key mapping problems if you install sshd on your N900. You will then be able to connect by remote (by wifi or usb) to the phone and access your file system, and change keyboard mappings, just if you were using the xterm application. I really can't understand why anyone would choose not to do this.
