Generally this is whenever you need to redefine the meaning of a keycode (as the dvorak keyboard layout does). > This bug is minor because it took 15 > seconds to figure out to hit ctrl+alt+u and because there are not that many > users of the dvorak keyboard.

Should be easy enough for someone (such as yourself) to make one. qemu's keymap layout is quite simple and you can figure out the mapping between keys and keycodes via xev or xmodmap. > > > _______________________________________________ > Qemu-devel mailing list > Qemu-devel@nongnu.org > http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel > -- Infinite complexity begets infinite beauty.
