Just tried the unofficial PPA for 12.04 with the latest patchset
keyboard input doesnt work
Keyboard layout unknown, please send the following to the SDL mailing list (sdl at libsdl.org):
code = 1, sym = 0xFF1B (Escape) scancode = 41 (Escape)
code = 2, sym = 0x31 (1) scancode = 40 (Return)
code = 3, sym = 0x32 (2) scancode = 41 (Escape)
code = 4, sym = 0x33 (3) scancode = 42 (Backspace)
code = 5, sym = 0x34 (4) scancode = 43 (Tab)
code = 6, sym = 0x35 (5) scancode = 44 (Space)
code = 7, sym = 0x36 (6) scancode = 45 (-)
code = 8, sym = 0x37 (7) scancode = 46 (=)
code = 9, sym = 0x38 (8) scancode = 47 ([)
code = 10, sym = 0x39 (9) scancode = 48 (])
code = 11, sym = 0x30 (0) scancode = 39 (0)
...
The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL mailing list <sdl at libsdl.org> X11 KeyCode 24 (16), X11 KeySym 0x71 (q).
