I can't get the right config (keyboard, yaboot)
Hi all,
My machine : powerbook 15'' alu , 1,25ghz, french azerty keyboard.
I managed to install debian sarge with the debian-installer beta 2
without pain but the xserver didn't work at this time. To get xfree
working I followed Luis Sanjuan sugestion :
- swiching to kernel 2.6
- upgrade to sid
- install xfree-dri-trunk

http://libertonia.escomposlinux.org/story/2004/1/16/175324/141)
Now the xserver works fine.
My problem is to get the right keyboard config. In fact, I can't have
some keys such as "tilde" or "pipe" ... I noticed that when I'm not
using the xserver but the consol I just have to type "loadkeys
mac-fr-ext " to get the right keykoard. Then I can get for eg the
"tilde" like in original mac french keyboard : option + n or the pipe :
shift + option + L. But when I run an x session these keys no longer
work.
Here is my X config file:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "Xkbrules" "xfree86"
Option "Xkbmodel" "macintoch"
Option "Xkblayout" "fr"
The other problem is that when I start the system I always have to open
the Open Firmware in order to boot debian with "boot hd:9,yaboot". If I
don't do this, my system will boot automaticly with mac os X.
I've already run the yabootconfig command and ybin. And every thing
seems goes well. Here is what I have in yaboot.conf:
macosx=/dev/hda13
boot=/dev/hda9
device:/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:
partition=1
root=/dev/hda11
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
imag=/boot/vmlinux
label=linux
append="video=radeonfb"
read-only
Big thanks for those who can give me some tips and suggestions.
Greetings
