Hi,
I updated and migrated from xfree86 to xorg on my unstable Pismo.
But I'm not able to keep a working keyboard similar with mac layout.
The generated xorg.conf contains:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "macintosh"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr_new"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
EndSection
(fr_new comes from http://www.linux-france.org/macintosh/clavier_v4.html)
All attempts I made to change this setting leads to a non working
keyboad in Gnome. Currently I'm writing from Xfe where I get a keyboard
working, though without any accentuated chars. I don't get the pipe
neither :/
Anyone already experienced an xorg switch on an old pwb with adb kbd ?
I had a similar problem on my ibook after upgrade from xorg6 to xorg7.
I had to copy fr_new to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh_vndr/fr.
Using the name fr_new didn't work.
My config :
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "macintosh"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
EndSection
Regards,
Bin
