X11 is cool...but I need to figure out somethings.
Using X11, I remotely logged into another machine that's got some 2-d drafing application as well as a matching 3-d solid modeling application. I set the display to show up on my ibook, it shows up fine.
Here's where problems start to crop up.
1) The 2-d drafting application shows up, but the keyboard mapping
isn't enabled exactly. Everything works it appears except the mapping of the F1-F12 function keys. when I try to use F2 to do what normally would be "zoom", it adjusts the ibook brightness instead, so that's not right.
Also...the middle mouse button functionality is lost.
Is there anyway to fix this? Under X11--> preferences, all the right boxes are checked off such as "emulate 3 button mouse, follow system keyboard layout, enable key equivalents under x11"
2) I tried starting up the 3-d modeler, it didn't fly. I get a "segmentation violation". Checking the error log, I get this explanantion:
Xlib: extension "XInputExtension" missing on display "ibook:0.0"
Where can I find this missing extension for the display, and how do I install it? (sorry I'm only marginally unix saavy).
