GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 654903
Keyboard detection is wrong.
Last modified: 2021-05-26 09:25:32 UTC
Problem: When I connect to server, it assumes I have Latvian dvorak keyboard layout, but my computer has en_us layout and AltGr is used to get Latvian specific characters. What should happen: If I use en_us keyboard and use AltGr to modify keys, the same should happen on Windows machine. Notes: it might have more to do with rdesktop utility, because it has the same problem there, or it could be that information about language and keyboards in environment variables is stored in an incompatible way. Either way, I can't change the layout in vinagre interface. That could minimize the inconvenience.
I'm having some similar problem: - vino server on a system configured with ES keyboard - vinagre in a system ES configured too - typing acts as an EN keyboard; example: pressing «ñ» key I got a remote «;» character -both characters are in the same key position (ñ for ES ; for EN). $ rpm -q vino vinagre vino-3.0.2-2.fc15.i686 vinagre-3.0.1-3.fc15.i686 fyi
I'm having a similar problem: Ubuntu 11.10 with english as default language, connection to a laptop with swedish windows XP. I don't get åäö working at all. Fullscreen is working so nice, therefore I like to get this working.
Same here for Norwegian keyboard with Windows 7. Seems the keyboard layout is all wrong. I tested with gnome-rdp which is a Mono-based app using the same libraries and that worked just fine.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Vinagre, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vinagre/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
