2.10. Keyboard Issues

2.10.1. Plus "+" symbol on keyboard does not work when xset led is enabled (Oracle Solaris 11)
2.10.2. Shift-Props and Shift-Pause hot keys do not work when NumLock is on (Oracle Solaris 11 and Oracle Linux 6)
2.10.3. XKB (Oracle Linux)
2.10.4. Numeric keypad mapping (Oracle Linux)
2.10.5. Keyboard layout (Oracle Linux)

2.10.1. Plus "+" symbol on keyboard does not work when xset led is enabled (Oracle Solaris 11)

Workaround: Disable the LEDs on the keyboard using the following command:

xset -led     

Reference: CR 16191463

2.10.2. Shift-Props and Shift-Pause hot keys do not work when NumLock is on (Oracle Solaris 11 and Oracle Linux 6)

On Oracle Solaris 11 and Oracle Linux 6, the Shift-Props hot key does not open the utsettings GUI when NumLock is on. On Oracle Solaris 11, the Shift-Pause hot key does not detach a Sun Ray Client when NumLock is on.

Workaround: Turn off NumLock or launch the utsettings GUI from the command line:

/opt/SUNWut/bin/utsettings

Reference: CR 13645049

2.10.3. XKB (Oracle Linux)

The following message is displayed after enabling the XKB feature; however, the feature works as expected.

Error activating XKB configuration.
Probably internal X server problem.

2.10.4. Numeric keypad mapping (Oracle Linux)

Numeric keypad mapping does not work properly in Java-based Sun Ray Software commands such as utsettings, utmhconfig, and the registration GUI.

Workaround: Set the environment variable _AWT_USE_TYPE4_PATCH to false, as follows:

# setenv _AWT_USE_TYPE4_PATCH false

2.10.5. Keyboard layout (Oracle Linux)

setxkbmap cannot be used to set layouts for keyboards on Sun Ray Clients.
