Alt+0216 and similar special character problem and some more stuff.

Hello,

Hoping someone on the list have run into my problems, or at least know
how to fix it.

Some version infos first:
System: Ubuntu-Desktop 10.10
rdesktop: 1.6.0-2ubuntu3
Remote host: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

The first problem:
Some of our RDP users use allot of special characters like f.e. Ø -
diameter, Alt+0216,
but the Alt key is released in the session right after the first of the
four numbers are pressed,
so 216 is typed out, instead of Ø.
if it matters -k sv  is used for the cmdline.

Is there a way to resolve it so that it stays pressed until actually
released, hence working as intended?

Second problem:
Can the mouse pointer be anything other than BLACK?

Third problem:
I know its possible in Wyse/Igel and other thin client set-ups to use
the local usb ports, usbmemory sticks, printers, and so on,
to be redirected to the remote computer, is this possible with rdesktop,
or is it just com/lpt?

Is there another open source client that can eliminate the above
problems and should be used instead, if rdesktop can't do it?

Regards,

Magnus
