- I too encountered this problem, but I got someone more on the ball
- when I called support. There's a simple work-around: in the
- Session Manager Keyboard... setup dialog box, set your keyboard type
- to LK401. That fixed it for me.
-
- (I'm using a VAXstation 3100 with an LK201 keyboard, so it sounded
- unlikely to set it to LK401 which is wrong, but it solved this problem,
- and hasn't caused any other problems that I've found yet,
- and its been a few months.)
