Like this person, you are meeting this bug: Part of the keyboard is not functional when working with vncserver without XKEYBOARD support.

This is a VNC problem, and as stated in the bug contents, to fix it, you have 2 solutions (a temporary one and a permanent one):

  • export XKB_DEFAULT_RULES=base, then run your Qt application;
  • compile your software using Qt 5.11.0.

If you hook up a monitor and keyboard directly (so take vnc out of the picture) do you also see the problem with the QT wallet?

I've actually seen this same thing with a rasperry pi that I use vncviewer to connect to.  The problem didn't have to with the QT wallets rather just a general problem with using vncviewer.  I still hadn't had time to figure out what was wrong with it.

Sounds like maybe it's specific to the application so probably different then what I am seeing.
If this is vncviewer problem, then why other application like text editor has no problem in this vncviewer?

Maybe this is problem of qmake.

When type 'qmake', normally it says 5~6 lines but in this VPS, few ten lines appears, so there seems problem.

But I can't resolve how to solve it.

give me your cryptos
I can't seem to find a keyboard that maps QWER to C.GV

This is quite odd, I havent seen this before. Export/save your wallet.dat then reinstall the app and see if it makes a different. If it's working on other apps and just malfunctioning in a single app it wouldn't be a system keyboard issue.

Keyboard key mapping completely strange.

At other programs, ssh terminal keyboard works well, no problem.

This is my VPS server, now run Vncviewer at my windows desktop.

But at this coin qt program, when I type [asdfzxcvqwer] at keyboard, this is actually typed characters.
