Hi,
on my other computers, I have the same keyboard layout for X11 and tty, by
"dpkg-reconfigure console-setup". I do not need to configure 2 separate
layouts.
Finally I followed https://wiki.debian.org/MacBook
and changed manually /etc/defaults/keyboard:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="fr"
XKBVARIANT="mac"
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:rwin_switch"
Now in XFCE4 everything works fine, in tty just the key "6" types "-", and "-"
types "=", quite curious.
I have no delete-key on my G4, I even can't find it by searching on the web.
bye
Klaus
