How to try Forking --- mixed modifier

I provide precompiled package for Ubuntu Gutsy.

See general instruction for how to install my packages.

For forking you will need to install the server and client parts.

Install the Server & Client:

apt-get install fork-plugin
apt-get install fork-tools gauche-xlib

After that you have to modify your /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "double-keyboard"
    Option "Core"  "yes"    
    Driver      "medved"
    Option "Debug" "0"  # possibly "yes" or "1" activate tracing info 
 # todo: This should be      yes no auto(=yes if possible).
   Option "grab" "yes"
   Option "time" "auto"
#
# Useless
#    Option "XkbKeymap"  "/usr/share/X11/xkb/keymap/xkb.mmc"
#    Option "Device"   "/dev/input/event1"
EndSection

Use that newly defined inpupt device, i.e. register it to the top record:

Section "ServerLayout"
...
    InputDevice "double-keyboard" "CoreKeyboard"

and remove any other section with other keyboard drivers. Also, any pointer device, not using the "mouse" driver should be removed (synaptics, wacom....)
