[maemo-users] Rdesktop on OS2008

[From: Tim Ashman]

Your right, I forgot about this one.  You just need to hold down the shift on the first char to force lower case.

All,

because I am using the N800 and not the N810, of course I have to input 
the characters using the screenboard. However, because I ran my tests 
using VNC, I was entering the characters using my PC keyboard into the 
VNC client image on my PC display screen and not directly on the 
screenboard. In doing this I did notice that, when entering passwords, 
the first character gets auto-converted to a uppercase character before 
being obfuscated with a "*'character so I have to go back and correct 
that auto-mistake. To further verify that the use of VNC was not somehow 
corrupting the Rdesktop gui/logon process, I also ran rdesktop directly 
on the N800, that is, without using VNC,and I get the same result, that 
is, no successful connection.

Is it possible that this problem is somehow N800 specific?

Best Regards,
