Description Jesse Keating 2008-03-13 18:56:33 UTC
At some point recently in rawhide my compose key stopped working.  I think it
was around when we switched to evdev, but I couldn't tell you as I don't use it
frequently.

Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2008-03-14 14:13:30 UTC
Have you set it in Gnome tools, or in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? I did former and it
kind of works for me.

What is the output of

setxkbmap -print

???

Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2008-03-14 15:09:31 UTC
I set it in gnome.

xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+inet(evdev)+compose(caps)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};


Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 06:02:30 UTC
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Comment 4 Peter Hutterer 2008-08-22 07:54:45 UTC
Seems to be working rawhide now, both in gnome and on a plain server with xterm.

Comment 5 Peter Hutterer 2008-09-24 02:29:49 UTC
Tested with xorg-x11-server-1.5.0-2.fc9, compose works nicely now.

I'm closing this bug, please reopen if this is still an issue.

Comment 6 Jesse Keating 2008-09-24 04:16:36 UTC
Unfortunately I'm not using 9 any more to test.  It seems still broken in rawhide though.  I'll open a new bug for that.
