SPARC: Keycode 50 Does Not Work for European Keyboard Layouts (6387317)

Keycode 50 is not working for European keyboard layouts. This problem occurs with all European *6.kt keytable files. All keytables assign some symbols to keycode 50, but the key does not work. No error message is displayed.

Workaround:

Edit the *6.kt files in the /usr/openwin/share/etc/keytables directory. Duplicate keycode 50 for keycode 49 in the affected *6.kt file. For example, add the following entry for keycode 49 to the affected keytable file:

49 RN XK_numbersign XK_asciitilde
