 |
|
Hi there,
I am struggling to set the locale correctly. I have followed the official gentoo guide http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/guide-localization.xml with no success. There are lots of questions about utf-8 and locale in the forum, but I could be able to figure out the right combination so as can have accents like this: áéíóú çÇãÃõÕ.
My config files are as follow:
| Code: | externo ferreirafm # emerge --info

These settings used to work until my last full update.
Any clues are very appreciated.

After several attempts... The problem has been solved with the following command:
| Code: | | setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us -variant intl |
Setting the keyboard layout and variant throughout the xorg.conf didn't work.
So, the problem remains technically unsolved. Any comments?
Best of Luck,

this is probably a hal/evdev issue and you're late with dealing with it
- in 1.8 server, other scheme will be the default.
As for correct values, see /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.lst. |

Ok, lets wait for the 1.8 xorg-server. I had already suspected about some evdev problem. There were lots of posts pointing to the .fdi rules for evdev. However, I couldn't manege to make it works.
Anyway, at list I have a workaround. |

This is a working /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi for ABNT2 keyboards:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keymap">
<append key="info.callouts.add" type="strlist">hal-setup-keymap</append>
</match>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys">
<merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">base</merge>
<!-- If we're using Linux, we use evdev by default (falling back to
keyboard otherwise). -->
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">keyboard</merge>
<match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name"
string="Linux">
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">evdev</merge>
</match>
<merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">br</merge>
<merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string">abnt2</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>

Remeber that you should restart hal service after adding this file.

I have been trying to solve this issue for long time. With your command line added to my .bashrc I finally can type áéíóúñ on X.
But searching more deep on the forum a found this solution :
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-758627-highlight-usacentos.html
With both, I have the same result.
Thank's |
