Comment 4 for bug 766530

Here’s what I found out so far:

When accessing vino on Ubuntu 10.04 from both vinagre on 10.04 and 11.04, I experience a problem with not all key presses being transmitted. It seems not to be actually the case that a wrong keyboard layout is applied, since the keys that are transmitted are correct. But not all key presses are transmitted, e.g. umlauts (ä,ö,ü), the euro sign etc. are not displayed on the server. So it somehow seems that only ascii (?) keycodes are received on the server, but using the correct keyboard layout.

When accessing vino on Ubuntu 11.04 from vinagre on 10.04, all keys work correctly.

Thus, for me it currently seems that the issue is within vino, but apparently was fixed in the version that shipps with Ubuntu 11.04.

@georg.hoermann: Does this match your observations?
