XFree86 Keyboard error (azerty ; be-latin1)
Hi all,
I have a keyboard issue in X. I'm also a very *new* linux-user.
problem:
The Right Alt (Alt Gr) key doesn't work under X. In a console it works fine.
Azerty layout works fine.
This message i get from tty1 console (from which i sarted x)

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Error: No Symbols named "latin1" in the include file "be"
> Exiting
> Abandoning symbol fyle "default"
--
Extract from /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
--
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "be"
Option "XkbVariant" "latin1"
# Option "RightAlt" "ModeShift"
EndSection
--
the commented out option Modeshift is a solution that was proposed on a
couple of websites, the thing didn't work so i disabeled it.
question(s)
-should i simply install the latin1 variant in the "be" include file (?
:-/). Which package(s) do i need?
-Is there a keyboard config for the console (similar to above section in
XF86Config-4)? This way i would be able to see what the difference is
between both configs.
Thx!
Jeroen
