152 DOMINION KX II USER G UIDETilde SymbolFrom the Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client, the key combination of Alt Gr + 2does not produce the tilde (~) symbol when using a French keyboard.To obtain the tilde symbol:Create a macro consisting of the following commands:1. Press Right Alt2. Press 23. Release 24. Release Right AltJava Runtime Environment (JRE)Because of a limitation in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE), Fedora, Linux, and Solarisclients receive an invalid response from Alt Gr on UK English and US International languagekeyboards. Fedora, Linux, and Solaris do not pick up events for the Alt Gr key combination forJava 1.4.2 or 1.5. Java 1.6 appears to improve on this, although the keyPressed and keyReleasedevents for Alt Gr still identify it as an “unknown key code”.Also, a key pressed in combination with Alt Gr (such as on the UK keyboard Alt Gr-4), which isthe Euro symbol), will only generate a keyTyped followed by a keyReleased event for that value,without a keyPressed event. Java 1.6 improves upon this by filling in the keyPressed event as well.Keyboard Language Preference (Fedora Linux Clients)There are several methods that can be used to set the keyboard language preference on FedoraLinux clients. The following method must be used in order for the keys to be mapped correctlyfrom the Virtual KVM Client and the Multi-Platform Client (MPC).To set the keyboard language:1. From the toolbar, select System > Preferences > Keyboard.2. Open the Layouts tab.3. Add or select the appropriate language.4. Click Close.Note: Other methods will not necessarily yield correct results.Macintosh KeyboardWhen a Macintosh is used as the client, the following keys on the Mac keyboard are not capturedby the Java Runtime Environment (JRE):• F9• F10• F11• F14• F15• Volume Up• Volume Down• Mute• Eject
