after installation of twm instructions given at #402 , i have new issue....

  • earlier it was showing in xterm: root@localhost:~# , all keys are working
  • now it is showing only # , only alphabets & number keys are working

This isn't issue of AnLinux, I think it is faster if you search solution through the internet, this issue will still be open for discussion through.

  • as a noob, who have come across installing twm with vncserver, its a bug
  • i cant complain, because its in beta stage ;)

@exalab999

  • debian + stand-alone vnc server (https://github.com/EXALAB/AnLinux-App/issues/402#issuecomment-1309928970) = working (everything including all keyboard keys in xterm)
  • debian+(vnc+twm) = broke (all keyboard keys not working in xterm)

notes

  • deleted experimental branch? reasons best known to you
  • something has gone missing in beta, hence all keyboard keys are not working.....

@jindam-vani Can you provide the command you run after installing vnc server? I will make a reference.

  • i did not run any command, started xterm from twm menu:# Workspace Menu (Left click in root) menu "apps" { "Workspace" f.title "XTerm" f.exec "xterm -fn 7x14 &" "Small XTerm" f.exec "xterm &" "Large XTerm" f.exec "xterm -fn -*-fixed-medium-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1 &" "X-Large XTerm" f.exec "xterm -geometry 80x36 -fn -*-fixed-medium-*-*-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-*-1 &"
  • to view my history i use arrow keys on keyboard, voila they are not working like previously

I modified LANG=C to export LANG=C and all the keys are working, the scripts are updated. You can try it through, but I didn't sure this is the problem yet.
