Hi everyone, I have remapped the capslock key to control keys on all my computers, also I am using xcape so a short press of the capslock key will send an escape character. In x2go all the remapping and xcape stuff are not working. I have tried to kbd-type to auto and not set it at all in the pyhoca-cli. Is it possible to send the key generated in the client side unmodified to the server? Below is what I got by googling, but I am still unclear how to make my setup work. Thank you!
The server now offers three modes for configuring the session's keyboard settings:
no change via client -> configure your keyboard setup through desktop tools, e.g. gnome-keyboard-properties
set model and layout through x2goclient
-> use -type parameter of nxagent/x2goagent to set the keyboard model/type
-> x2goclient + pyhoca-gui run setxkbmap -layout <layout> after
session startup
-> pyhoca-gui additionally runs setxkbmap -variant <variant> after
session startup (new session profile: ,,variant'').
---> RECOMMENDED for x2goclient3. NEW: autodetect the client-side keyboard layout through NX -> set the keyboard model/type to ,,auto'' (instead of pc104/us etc.) -> nxagent will create a file ~/.x2go/<session>/keyboard with all client-side keyboard settings -> x2goruncommand and x2goresume-session will call a new script: called x2gosetkeyboard -> x2gosetkeyboard will reset the keyboard settings and set all settings as found in the keyboard file
