Re: Keycodes Problem



Ok, well I got it by setting the keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=1 option
in BootX.  I did find the keymaps in /usr/share/keymaps/mac/, but it
didn't work.  When it booted, it first loaded it fine.  Then, later in
the booting process, it would for some reason load it again but the
wrong one this time.  (I know this because I could type 'hi'
successfully after the first but not after the second)  I then saw that
the one that I put in the /etc/console directory had been renamed to
boottime.kmap.old.gz, and the incorrect one had replaced it as
boottime.kmap.gz.  I have no clue why it did this, but it works now. 
Thanks,
Steven
