Re: keyboard problem


First - read the XFree faqs and manuals - then search the mailinglist
archives for xmodmap/xkbmap and read....

But to be helpful :

You kan use 2 methods :

Compile the German keybord with xkbcomp and start your X session with the "
+kb -xkbmap ge" setting (be aware that numlock must be off...)
Create/Copy a German keymap file and execute "xmodmap <keymap file>" after
your X session has started.
