Re: problem with sun/us in XFree on sarge

[Luis Martinez <luimarma@mconesa.com>]

I have an ultra 30 with type 5 keyboard (with spanish layout) and sun symbols 
rules do not work for me on Xfree, not even the tricks about removing lines 
or ";" in "/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/sun/us". Instead the following keyboard 
definition does work very good for me, even the layout works fine with my 
spanish keyboard symbols. I hope you find this usefull. Note that my keyboard 
has an spanish layout but there is no reference to this in the keyboard, 
anyway it works.

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "keyboard"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "en_US"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "sun5"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
