[uae] Keyboard problems

Hello,

after changing kbd_lang=de to

kbd_lang=de

I actually get umlauts and the # sign.

But I cannot type all chars from within the emulation... I cannot type "t", "f", "h", "b". And for some keys only the right shift key gives me the alternate meaning, not the left shift key. For example for the "<" key I get the ">" only when I press the right shift key, when I press the left shift key I still get the "<".

I didnt found a mention of this problem in the README yet.

I am using the following keyboard definition for XF86:

Section "InputDevice"
 Driver       "Keyboard"
 Identifier   "Keyboard[0]"
 Option       "Protocol" "Standard"
 Option       "XkbLayout" "de"
 Option       "XkbModel" "pc105"
 Option       "XkbRules" "xfree86"
 Option       "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection

Which together with "set-language-env" to German (from the package "language-env") gives me a correctly working key board under Linux including all those keys that do not work on the emulated Amiga. Obviously otherwise I wouldn't be able to write this e-mail. I even can type the euro sign.

Any hints?

Regards,
Martin
