AG_BindGlobalKey doesn't work well on my Gnome session

I was trying the demos with agar and I discovered that for example the ESCAPE key is not working (exiting the application) as it should do on my Gnome session. Anyway, I know that this is not an Agar problem but something with my Gnome session configuration because running the demos on another session of Gnome (with a different user) it works as expected.

Can anyone point me out where to look to solve this problem? :-)

Thanks.
Ernesto

Is it possible that you had your caps key on when this occured? It seems
AG_BindGlobalKey() was doing an exact comparison on the key modifiers.
I've just fixed this in subversion, it is now ANDing the modifiers instead.

Well, that was the problem but in my case was with the numlock key. My session starts with that key on and on the other session starts with that key off.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I tried the SVN version (updated tonight) and I have the same behavior. The weird thing is that it only happens when you start the application with one (or more) of the modifiers keys on. If you start the application with all the keys turned off and the turn on one (or more) keys, the ESCAPE key works fine (it exits the application).

Thanks.
Ernesto

Sorry, I've forgot to actually commit the change. It is in svn now.
