Keyboard Character Errors

[inforeqd]

Hope this group can help, I've already trolled
through all the summaries on Sun Managers.

Here goes.

Sunblade 100, running solaris 8. I have some
legacy software installed on the system so I'm
sure this is the area thats confusing the keyboard
however I just cant come up with a point to start the
troubleshooting. So with that said heres the only
problem I am having.
A user logs in and opens a terminal (xterm, dtterm etc) the following characters q y u x (upper
or lower doesnt matter) print a ^] instead of the
actual character.

Any ideas on what to check? ENV wise I have it mapped
to /usr/openwin/lib/X11/XKeysymDB. Not sure if this
helps but its about the only place I've thought of
starting this little adventure.

TIA

type this command: stty -a. Do you see anything in there regarding q,y,u or x?

I've never seen this particular problem, but I do know that unless I specify: stty erase "^H" in my .profile, I can't use my backspace key to delete characters on the command line. So maybe this might help?

it's probably difficult to type stty since y is one of the keys he is having problems with......

I guess they might paste it from another app...

does this affect other applications beside the terminal windows?

Sorry for the delay, thanks for the answers.
It seems my proprietary software is doing some
xmodmap actions. Once I copied the xmodmap that
the software is implementing into a backup file
all the keys worked. Now I'm in the process of
mapping bindings of that xmodmap file to ensure
that not running it doesnt have a negative affect.

Thanks again.
