Answer:
Hi !

Just an explanation, but sadly no solution - so far

CM Synergy reacts on a specific set of X11 keycodes/keysyms.
Unfortunately the Num-Lock key is a key "modifier" like shift,
ctrl or alt.
So, if Numlock is on, X11 sends <NUMlock><RightClick> in CMs
direction and CM thinks "????", because it was not taught to
ignore Numlock modifiers.

So, we can switch Numlock off or disable Numlock via .mapmod.

The perfect solution would be to tell CM Synergy, perhaps via the
X resourcefile Ccm, to translate <Numlock><right_lick> to just
<right_click>.

I´am not a X11 hacker (until now) so perhaps there is someone
out there,who is able to tweak X11 in this direction....
Surely I will continue to dig around.

Regards,

Mert

Hi !

I've a problem with the use of CM Synergy 6.3 client on Linux (problem appear also on CM Synergy 6.2) :

the right mouse click on an object does not work (no list of cm function appear for the object) until i disable the Num Lock key !

When i turn off the Num Lock key the right click was operating, when the Num Lock key is off the right click does not work ??

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance.
