weird rxvt-unicode & keymap issue

erno · 2015-01-06 20:37:42

i use urxvtc -q -f -o & urxvtc to open terminals, the shell is fish and wm is i3.

open terminal and press <up> the window closes
open terminal and press <down> the window closes
open terminal and press <right> the window doesn't close and i'm able to work normally from there on

also somehow my keymaps are screwed:

# loadkeys fi
Invalid argument
Invalid argument

# ls /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/fi.map.gz
/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/fi.map.gz

i get no öä on terminals, browsers are unaffected. any info i need to post for you?

Post your i3 config file, your fish config file and your .Xresources/.Xdefaults (whichever you use to configure urxvt)

You have the arrow keys bound 3 times in the i3 config and the uo&down arrows are also bound in urxvt.

Comment out all the keybinds relating to the arrow keys & see if the problem goes away.

erno · 2015-01-06 21:06:00

the behaviour still remains.

if i inser any character the window will not close ever after that. it's only if the very first input to the window is either up/down.

The `loadkeys` command only works from the console (TTY) -- is that where you're running it from?

What is the output of:

localectl list-keymaps|grep fi

Good stuff.

I haven't a clue about the rxvt-unicode issue though, hopefully somebody else will.

erno · 2015-01-06 22:16:37

oh sorry, i meant that i was wrong to run loadkeys from the terminal. running it in a tty does indeed solve the character issue. the issue is still there for terminals

erno · 2015-01-07 16:07:48

i really can't figure out what i've done to cause this. on tty "sudo loadkeys fi" does not give me the correct keymap. user root can get the "fi" keymap no problem. it's a bit weird to me that i can get keys Ö & Ä on google chrome but not on urxvt.

Have you made changes to ~/.inputrc perhaps? Assuming bash. But your configs look pretty complex, try without them or a new user.

erno · 2015-01-07 18:45:34

i don't have .inputrc at all. some more info: login as root on tty2 and i have the correct layout. doing "su user" i get the correct layout. but logging in as user doesn't give the correct layout.

Head_on_a_Stick · 2015-01-07 18:49:21

What is the content of ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc?

erno · 2015-01-07 19:44:49

.bash_profile is empty

.bashrc

[[ $- != *i* ]] && return

alias ls='ls --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '

i used zsh until i switched to fish a couple of months ago. this problem started happening just a few days ago.

So what changed in your system just before then?

i wonder if these issues are relevant:

changing volume in cmus takes more than 10 seconds to have an effect

weechat using mouse-enable: doing gestures works funny - the first few don't do anything, then gesture to left starts to work and a few swipes after that it starts to work towards right too

jasonwryan · 2015-01-07 20:33:25

And if you remove these lines from your .Xresources?

URxvt.keysym.C-Up:     perl:font-size:increase
URxvt.keysym.C-Down:   perl:font-size:decrease

erno · 2015-01-07 20:43:28

that does fix the weechat mouse behaviour! nice. i'll let weechat dev know.

the keymap issue is still a mystery.

edit: in fact i had somehow removed these lines

URxvt.iso14755: false
URxvt.iso14755_52: false

so no need to report anything...

@Alad did suggest removing (or renaming) all the config files -- did you try that?

erno · 2015-01-07 21:02:56

i added a new user and that fixed the "terminal closing on up/down" -issue but not the keymap problem

Head_on_a_Stick · 2015-01-07 21:49:49

Ergo the problem is that the terminal can't display the characters -- your keymap is set correctly.

EDIT: Try a different font or a different terminal emulator.

alright!

if i open uxterm and run urxvtc from there the problem goes away.

doing the same with xterm the problem's there.

what does this tell you? i'd really like to keep using rxvt-unicode.
