Re: [Qemu-devel] Pipe key broken on US keyboards

[Phillip Susi]

I've been reading up here:
http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-1.html

And man, what a mess keyboards are!  Worse than floppy controllers.
According to that site, the scan code for \ should be 0x2b, so why does
xev say the keycode is 51?  Is keycode something else entirely from scan
codes and keysyms?  If so how can I see the scan code?
