Hi,

I have a Vista Prenium edition with cygwin. By default in XWin, the keyboard in configured for US mode whereas I have a french keyboard. I've tried all the solutions given in the FAQ (http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-non-U.S.-keyboard-layout) but it fails. The last stuff I've tried is to execute the following command line :

xkbcomp -w 3 -xkm -m /de/ /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 localhost:0.0

which fails and returns :

cannot open "xkm" for reading

Could anyone help please?

Thanks,

Mayeul Rousselet
