[jira] [Created] (GUACAMOLE-2215) Cannot enter Polish diacritics when connecting via RDP.
Karol created GUACAMOLE-2215:
--------------------------------
Summary: Cannot enter Polish diacritics when connecting via RDP.
Key: GUACAMOLE-2215
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2215
Project: Guacamole
Issue Type: Bug
Components: guacamole, guacd
Affects Versions: 1.6.0
Environment: Windows 11 + Firefox (user's desktop), Debian 13.3 (guacd's host and qemu), Windows 2012 r2 (vm) on RDP
Reporter: Karol
Windows 2012 r2 running as a virtual machine (QEMU). I can enter Polish diacritics over a standard RDP connection (mstsc.exe). However, this isn't possible through the standard method (see below) when connecting via Guacamole. The RDP connection is configured with the line "server-layout=pl-pl-qwerty". Guacd's logs indicate that the keyboard map is loaded without error.
I think the problem may be due to faulty AltGr support. I've done some testing and I can enter Polish diacritics, but it requires a complicated combination I accidentally discovered. That is, to get "ą" I have to press LCTRL + LALT + ALTGR + a. Consequently, to get "Ą" I have to press LSHIFT + LCTRL + LALT + ALTGR + a. If I use the ALTGR + a combination, only "a" appears.
