Description Bill Burns 2008-03-12 17:52:03 UTC 
Description of problem:
Running RHEL 5.2 pre-beta and the guest viewer window has issue.
When logged in and with a terminal window running I cannot
type uppercase characters (shift is not working). The ctrl
modifier is also not fnuctioning. They may work occasionally,
but mostly don't

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-xen-2.6.18-84.el5
xen-libs-3.0.3-55.el5
xen-3.0.3-55.el5


How reproducible:
Fire up a guest, login to the console, start a
terminal window and try entering shifted characters.


Actual results:
No shifter characters appear, sometimes multiple lower
case ones do.

Expected results:
What you type is what you get!

Flagging as a regression as the default viewer in RHEL 5.1 did not
behave this way.
Comment 1 Bill Burns 2008-03-12 18:27:42 UTC 
Sometimes by playing with mouse focus I can get shifted characters to echo. But
I still got extra lowercase versiond echoed too.
