| I am running Arch Linux. The 1.3.3-1 release breaks any combination of ctrl + another key when connected to a tigervnc server. Downgrading to 1.3.2-5 fixes the problem. The Arch devs believe this to be an upstream issue. See this bug report on the distro: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42796
Steps to reproduce: 1) Install tigervnc and a DE ... on my box it runs lxde. 2) My ~/.vnc/xstartup contains online 1 line: exec startlxde and is started with this command: vncserver -geometry 1792x1008 -alwaysshared 3) Connect to the vncserver and try to ctrl+f or ctrl+t in chromium for example. Nothing happens.
Now downgrade fltk and restart the vncserver. The ctrl+x combinations work as expected. | |

| Thanks for the report.
This is not a FLTK bug though. It will be resolved in TigerVNC 1.4.0. See this comment in an unrelated TigerVNC bug report:
https://github.com/TigerVNC/tigervnc/issues/72#issuecomment-63786427
"We rely on a lot of patches for FLTK 1.3.2 to get things right. All of them are included in FLTK 1.3.3, but unfortunately some things changed a bit. Meaning that TigerVNC 1.3.1 and FLTK 1.3.3 won't get a fully functional keyboard. TigerVNC 1.4.0 should work fine though, so please test the beta we just released."
I hope this helps. | |
