Can't assign Alt_L key in rpi_sym.vkm

[dabonetn]

Trying to change the keymap to suit me, I can't get Alt_L seen by bmc, it doesn't seem to understand this key.

Example

Alt_L 7 7 8 / Alt_L = Run Stop /

Doesn't work, but

F11 7 7 8 / Alt_L = Run Stop / Works with F11 as runstop.

Do I have the keysym code wrong?

Thanks.

Yup, I just looked. I'm incorrectly using the WINDOWS key as alt left. So if your keyboard has a windows key, you can use that temporarily. I'm releasing an update in a couple days so I will include the fix for this. I'm also going to clean up the key names. It's a mess so it makes making key sym files confusing. Thanks!

This should be fixed now.
