[comp.sys.apollo] X11R4 and the hot key

rand@HWCAE.CFSAT.HONEYWELL.COM (03/22/91)

How do you get the hot key to work? I followed the directions in the
release notes, but I still cannott get it work. Even if I apply the
USR1 and USR2 signals by hand it don't work.

If signal Xdomain with USR1, my screen go blank, although it does keep
the X background, but all the windows dissappear. But, there is no DM
running! I've still got /etc/dm_or_spm in my /etc/ttys. Help!

Another thing. My keyboard is completly screwed up. I login via xdm,
everything works fine. Until I get my first shell (a mterm if it
matters). Then the space bar generates '(', or sometimes the character
'9'. My solution is to signal Xdomain with USR1 and then USR2, and
everything fixes itself. This is not fun. Any ideas?
