16.04 - x11vnc under Ubuntu 16.10 - wrong keyboard mapping when accessing from Windows 7 - Ask Ubuntu
sorry, still quite new-be ubuntu , may not see obvious.
i have installed ubuntu 16.04lts 16.10 scratch on small intel machine german keyboard attached. system language set english, keyboard standard german. when working on system directly normal.
i have installed x11vnc
server on box , access windows 7 notebook standard german keyboard using vnc viewer 5.3.2.
the access works, noticed special characters not being submitted correctly. main problems have @ , |.
i have tried setting special options on server side such -xkb
, -remap dead
,-add_keysyms
, -noadd_keysyms
, none solution. 1 of them - forgot after changes - gave me wanted characters, not ! anymore.
edit: tested other vnc clients under windows (vnc viewer 6.0.0, tightvnc viewer 2.8.5) same results. must issue between windows , ubuntu such.
what doing wrong? thanks!
i solved exact same problem ubuntu 16.04lts server connect via vnc using setxkbmap xx
. (adjust xx language. in case 'de')
this, resets on reboot need go system > preferences > startup applications , add new startup programm. can choose whatever name , comment. in command section type in setxkbmap xx
(again replace xx language code).
the command executed @ startup , set keylayout.
