and into its window press and release the 'w' key and paste here the result?
something like this:
KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
root 0x6a9, subw 0x0, time 4756288, (28,97), root:(202,266),
state 0x0, keycode 25 (keysym 0x77, w), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (77) "w"
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (77) "w"
XFilterEvent returns: False
KeyRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
root 0x6a9, subw 0x0, time 4756379, (28,97), root:(202,266),
state 0x0, keycode 25 (keysym 0x77, w), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (77) "w"
XFilterEvent returns: False
