> NEW CODE TO CHECK FOR Shift_R
I had already made the same change - also my keyboard generates
scancodes 224 182 and 224 54 (decimal) for combinations with Shift_R.
One more thing: my keyboard has a key labeled Macro which generates
scancodes 224 111 224 239 leading to a Linux kernel printout because
the keyboard driver doesnt believe in scan codes in the range 96-127.
(I changed the code a little and upped NR_KEYS to 113.)
Another small problem is with the handling of diacritical symbols.
A patch is given below - I made many other changes, so
the line numbers will not be accurate.
In the dead key handler:
1. The combination 'y (y with acute accent) was not recognized.
2. The combination ~N (N with tilde) was not recognized.
3. The code given for "I (I with diaeresis) was incorrect.
