View Full Version : Hardware keyboard not working with 1.30?

I've upgraded to 1.30, and now I can't seem to type numbers by using the built-in keyboard of my iPaq 6515. I press the number buttons

1/u 2/i 3/o
4/j 5/k 6/l
7/n 8/m 9/!
0/.

and nothing happens any more. I used to be able to click on a square with the stylus, and enter the number I wanted, instead of picking the number from the side of the screen.

Has anyone else had this problem, is there any way around it? Otherwise, is there anywhere I can download the previous version?

(replying to myself)

I've discovered that I can enter numbers with the keyboard, if I hit the blue button in the bottom left corner of the iPaq 6515, twice in a row, to effectively get a "Number Lock". I guess the keyboard usually sends through u/i/o/j/k/l/n/m/!/. to the program. But I didn't have to do this for the previous version, it just worked.

So, I have a workaround, but I think it would be better if it were working the same way as before.
