Post by a-lab »

Is 'ja' keyboard layout supported?
If not, could you please add it?

Re: Keyboard ja layout

Unfortunately, several key codes are not assigned properly in my environment.
i.e. Although '\'(backslash) of en layout should be ']' in ja layout, it still assigned as '\'.

http://ascii-table.com/keyboard.php/194

I added 'keyboard = ja' line to *.wtc file and confirmed its setting appeared on
wtware syslog below.

| initrd: Download file "pro\4.6.8/configs/00.1E.C9.7C.B8.9E.wtc" from TFTP server "172.16.0.150".
...
| +--- FILE "/tmp/cfg" -----------------------
...
| | keyboard = ja


Could you please tell me how to solve this problem?

Sorry, correct link is http://wtware.com/docs46/config.html#keyboard
This is only language mode in "windows login" screen.

Nice site. Looking on it, please tell me, what is wrong.
You talking about key with Base code U+005C?
Which char this key puts to Notepad while typing through mstsc.exe session?

Thank you for reply.

> You talking about key with Base code U+005C?

Yes, and some other characters. ('[', ']', ':', etc.)

> Which char this key puts to Notepad while typing through mstsc.exe session?

'\' -> puts '\' thurough mstsc.exe session (key does not respond thru wtware session)
']' -> puts ']' thru tsc ('\' thru wtware)
':' -> puts ':' thru tsc (''' thru wtware)

These results indicate wtware sends 101 keyboard layout in 'ja' config
instead of 106 layout. I confirmed incorrect key events sent
using freeware "SharpKeys".

Please, install and boot this:
http://pxe.ru/files/testing/201011051150.zip
This build will post scancodes we receive from hardware. You'll see new lines in wtware event viewer every time you press or release any key. Please, put log samples here for every incorrect key and write, which char should appear in notepad. Chars appear incorrectly when you type in ENglish or in JApanese?

Thank you for providing debug program.

In English, which ja imput-method is turned off (= single-byte mode).

> Please, put log samples here for every incorrect key and write, which char should appear in notepad.

Re: Keyboard ja layout

Post by aka »

It seems I do not understand, what is "layout".

I have keyboard with 'shift' and with '6'. I have mstsc.exe and original english windows7. I add Japan language, keyboard Japanese and Microsoft IME. In "JA" language, with both keyboards I got ^ when I press Shift-6.
In "RU" language, I got :
In "EN", I got ^, same as in "JA"

What should I do to get & when I press 'Shift-6'?

Probably you need to change keyboard driver at the Device Manager to emulate JA layout. Please see attached image.

Successful with local windows.
Unsuccessful with mstsc.exe.

Now I have two windows (winXP sp3 and win7, both english). Both have 106-key keyboard driver installed and three languages (EN, RU, JP). When I select JP, I got & for Shift-6 in both OSes. Locally.

But when I connect with mstsc.exe from one windows to another, I got ^ for Shift-6 in EN and JP.

Where am I wrong?

Good news: most of keys fixed. Here it is:

http://pxe.ru/files/testing/201011120723.zip

Specify keyboard=ja in config file. Please, try it.

To fix other keys, I need your assistance. Please contact my terminal server with mstsc.exe from win7 of winxp sp3 over Internet and press five times every key from following list:

Great! I confirmed lots of problems except specified above have been fixed.

However, one key 'Size' still does not respond. Please examine it also through sniffer later.
