 |
|
As in the title, the option for the keyboard XkbLayout in /etc/X11/xorg.conf is totally ignored
in the log of xorg I have no error, but it seams that the settings of the keyboard are loaded from another source and not xorg.conf
can you help me please? thanks in advance

Hi,
i guess you have got evdev as keyboard driver which is a bit different... http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Evdev

Note that the old-style InputDevice section are no longer in use with udev enumerated input devices. Instead, the InputClass sections are now used.
You can copy the relevant section /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and adjust as needed. If it still does not work, post here your configuration from xorg.conf. |

thanks a lot for thre replies!
Well, now xorg.conf is loaded but I have this error
| Code: | [ 486.112] (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev"
[ 486.112] (**) Option "xkb_model" "logitech_g15"
[ 486.112] (**) Option "xkb_layout" "fr_CH"
[ 486.120] (EE) Error loading keymap /tmp/server-1.xkm
[ 486.120] (EE) XKB: Failed to load keymap. Loading default keymap instead.
|
this is my keyboard settings in the xorg.conf file
| Code: | Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "fr_CH"
EndSection

hmm... this is mine:
| Code: |
Option "xkb_layout" "ch"
|
It is all in lower case with a _ in it... And i really don't know what the right thing is for you - maybe you should just come over the röschtigraben! 
Jokes aside... I guess its something like that:
| Code: |
Option "xkb_layout" "ch"
Option "xkb_variant" "fr"
|
Cheers
