- Does anyone else have a problem with Alt-Home not working as
- advertised, to switch a view between window and full screen modes?
-
- Using the pull-down menu to do the switch works, but is a nuisance.
-
- It appears that the Alt-Home is just being passed on to the active
- program in the window like any other key (though not until the Alt
- key is released--odd).
-
- (This seems similar to, but different from, the known CSD problem
- with the "stuck" Alt key; toggling Alt rapidly does not help, and
- the problem occurs in windowed mode too, before the window loses
- focus by going to full-screen.)
-
- Could it be that OS/2 isn't recognizing my 84-key keyboard layout?
- (Horrors!) I am running the ServicePak, with its standard SVGA
- driver at 1024x768 on a Tseng 4000 board.
-
- Any thoughts would be appreciated.
