    Hi

    Some of you may have seen my previous postings on the vnc issue for non-US
    keyboards in SuSE 9.1. As you should know by now, there is an update
    available from YOU, claiming to solve this issue (among others).

    In my case it completely messed up my system. First I noticed that the "/"
    key is working again. Second I noticed that I could no longer start any
    programs using the K menu (I think it is called) at the bottom left. This is
    in fact the same problem I had with the Xvnc server from SuSE 8.2. As you
    may remember I reported a workaround using the SuSE 9.0 Xvnc server file for
    9.1.

    The 9.0 Xvnc file no longer worked on SuSE 9.1 after the update. I could no
    longer access the computer via vnc. Neither could I log in at localhost - I
    only got the Yast program automatically. Logging in with Windowmaker (I
    think it is called) I was able to restore the old Xvnc server file, but this
    still wouldn't un-break my system.

    So - here's my question: Has anybody got vnc to work properly with a non-US
    keyboard after the 9.1 update?

    Thanks in advance.

    /Niclas
