Re: AltGr and cygwin (French keyboard)
This doesn't solve my problem!
I also have problems with my Num_lock:
- In xterm, the Num_lock key is no taken in account. I can only type
the numbers but can not yse the arrows, end insert....)
- In rxvt, if the Num_lock is off I can use the numbers otherwise
every key press closes my terminal window

Your xmodmap file is incomplete.
You should add this :
keycode 107 = Delete
keycode 108 = KP_Enter
keycode 109 = Control_R
keycode 110 = Pause
keycode 111 = Print
keycode 112 = KP_Divide
keycode 113 = Mode_switch
keycode 114 = Break
! right windows-logo key
! in "windows" keyboards the postion of the key is annoying, is where AltGr
! usually resides, so go definie it as AltGr
keycode 116 = Mode_switch
! right windows-menu key, redefined as Compose key
keycode 117 = Multi_key
For my part, I have troubles with my numlock key. Could you try if yours is
functionning ?

Subject: AltGr and cygwin (French keyboard)
Hello,
I using the Xwin X server of cygwin and try to setup it to work with my
french keyboard. Unfortunatly I am not able to make the AltGr key work
correctly (needed for ~#{[|`\^@]}).
I am using xmodmap to re-map my keyboard. You will find bellow the
.Xmodmap file I am using. The only work arround I found is to use the
right-click menu key as the AltGr key.
I guess Xwin doesn't like the fake Control_L event that is generated by
windows when pressing the AltGr key.
Any help would be appreciated.
