Hello freebsd-x11 I'm running new xorg on 10-stable. I'm in GB, so I'm running a GB keyboard. Here's a snippet of the log output from X: [ 709.790] (**) Option "Protocol" "standard" [ 709.790] (**) Option "XkbRules" "xorg" [ 709.790] (**) Option "XkbModel" "pc105" [ 709.790] (**) Option "XkbLayout" "gb" [ 709.790] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Keyboard0" (type: KEYBOARD, id 7) *All* my keys work as they should apart from the UK Pound key, located above the numeral 3 on a pc105 keyboard. It worked everywhere before with the older version of X but not this one for some reason. When I press the key, nothing happens. Numeric 3 works fine. Shift works fine. I get the correct output in vim, vi, firefox. I don't get it in an xterm (or rxvt). I think maybe an option was missed when X was recompiled. Can anyone please suggest what it might be? I've tried recompiling rxvt and xterm to no avail. thanks, -- John
