I just got the Think Outside ultra-slim (sonoma) keyboard for my N800. It works well, but the apostrophe key is weird. If I hit it once, nothing happens. But when I then type a key it puts an accent. If I hit it twice, an apostrophe appears, but then the next letter ALSO has an accent. The same goes for the double-quote. I have to hit it twice, and then then next letter is ignored. Anyone have/solve this issue?

Not sure, but it sounds a bit like the keyboard layout could be set up with 'deadkeys' support (something I for the life of my can't understand the need for, but used for most default non-US keymaps for some reason). We desperately need the 'xmodmap' tool to check such things.. maybe someone knows where to find it? It's not on my N800.

Hello,
you can download the Bluetooth plugin maemo-bt-plugin_*_armel.deb. It contains a file data.tar.gz which in turn contains a directory 'kb-maps'. There are several key mappings for the Stowaway in several languages (DE, ES, IT, US).
I don't know what to do with these map files, though.
Cheers, Volker.

Now, my question has to do with how to input international characters and symbols. The above keyboard profile doe snot allow for that. is the accepted wisdom that one must create an xmodmap mapping for inputting chars not defined in the above keyboard profile?
Furthermore, it appears that when the hardware keyboard is connected the virtual keyboard is deactivated... thus, no possibility to input sy,bos and special characters.

P.S. Which files on the N800 control the input character mappings for hardware keyboards? The *.vkb files in /usr/share/keyboards are the mapping for the virtual keyboard.

By the way, choosing the Nokia SU-8W profile maps page-up/down to the left/right "cmd" keys on the Apple keyboard, which is nice; but it does mix up some of the special char keys so I switched back to generic 105.
