Correction: The cause for the key failure was not any sort of software but a crumb under the key!
Hello community,
During the last days I used JOSM for the first time. So far it seems to work fine.
However, I detected that the shortcuts for copy & paste (Strg-c and Strg-v) do not work anymore on my computer - even after switching off the computer and switching it on hours later. Instead of copying a ‘c’ appears and instead of pasting a ‘v’ appears on the screen.
As operating system I use OpenSUSE Linux 10.3 with KDE 3.5.7. Can anybody help with a hint?
Thanks,
ReiPar
Addition:
I have now discovered that only the left Strg key is affected by the problem described above. This is bad, though.
Your whole setup is very outdated - end of life of OpenSUSE 10.3 was in 2009 and 1.6.0_31 is the current java version.
Don’t expect anyone to support this configuration…
I don’t think that this is a josm bug, but rather a jre one.
the cause for not working of the left Strg key was a much simpler one than JRE or JOSM: There was a crumb under the key which I didn’t notice. This is the first experience of such a key failure, because I carefully keep all food away from my keyboard.
Thank you for your thinking, though. I’m sorry for annoying you with this at the end very simple problem.
I know that my operating system is rather outdated. But I don’t have a second - perhaps old or different type of - computer as a replacement, if a new installed operating system doesn’t work for any reason. I like OpenSUSE, but the support for updates is rather short. Honestly, I downloaded the new Java version today and tried to install it several times in different manners (without and with YAST), but it obviously failed. The output of “java -version” is the same as before.
