Re: American keyboard
Hello Theo,
Many thanks for the reply.
I have two other machines on my system which both started off using
Woody, and were
later upgraded to Sarge. They both got the correct keymap for my
British keyboard.
The problem arose when I tried to install Sarge (initially) on a third
machine using a DVD from Linux Magazine.
I know that the installer is a new one, but it seems odd that it should
have slipped up in this way.
I am sure it must be me who is at fault !
There are indeed packages available to do this, but by editing or
changing individual keys.
Surely there is still a correct UK English locale with the appropriate
keymap still ?
I wonder how bilingual people get on. Can they switch between differing
alphabets ?
I'll keep looking !
Thanks for your help.

Can some-one point me to the appropriate "Fabulous Manual" (as in

The program is called Kxkb (but probably maskerades under a more
descriptive name) and manifests itself with a small flag in the
control bar. There is a manual for it.
