Following are limitations to specific keyboards and hot key combinations:
Hot Key
Combination
Description
Alt Gr Because of a limitation in the Java Runtime
Environment (JRE), Fedora, Linux, and Solaris
clients receive an invalid response from Alt Gr on
United Kingdom and US International language
keyboards.
Fedora, Linux, and Solaris do not pick up events
for the Alt Gr key combination for Java 1.4.2 or 1.5.
Java 1.6 appears to improve on this, although the
keyPressed and keyReleased events for Alt Gr still
identify it as an “unknown key code”.
Further, a key pressed in combination with Alt Gr
(such as on the UK keyboard Alt Gr-4, which is the
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.
Note: The KX II does not support Java 1.4.2.
Alt+SysRq+[key] Since the SysRq keyboard stroke is used by some
operating systems as a print shortcut, the Alt +
SysRq + [key] combination is supported only as a
macro when using DKX with RRC and MPC to a
Linux target.
