1 year ago kitty uses the exact same code in wayland as x11. If dead keys are not working then its because the compositor is not sending proper events for them. I can tell you they work fine in most compositors. Use --debug-input to see what keys events are sent to kitty.

1 year ago I did, it is in the bottom part of the bug report. Can you please have a look ? Kitty is the only app which ignores those dead keys.

1 year ago That output is mixed up with output from something else. Run kitty from within kitty like this
kitty --debug-input
Press a complete key sequence that reproduces the problem, then quit kitty and post the full log. And post what keyboard layout you are using and what keys you pressed on the keyboard to generate the log.

input {
kb_layout = fr
kb_variant =
kb_model =
kb_options =
kb_rules =Look at the errors near the top where libxkbcommon is failing to read the compose tables for your locale. That will be the cause. Make sure your local env vars are set correctly and the locale definition files are present on your system. And remember the env vars have to be set in whatever environment your are running kitty in, not inside the shell that is running in kitty.

1 year ago Thank you! I wonder why this is an issue only with kitty but for trace (if someone have the same issue), I had to change my locale.conf to contain EVERY variable, from:

LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8I have the same issue again, but only when opening "unicode input" mode, and this time it's not dead keys but standard keys like "a" and "q"... they are not processed at all, with such trace:

Everything was working for me until I recently switched to wayland (hyprland). Since then the dead keys (like "^" or "¨" in a French keyboard) just do nothing on Kitty. Very similar as #171 , but for wayland only.
