Tip 45: International keyboards The X Window System comes by default with an english keymap on most distributions. If you have a keyboard from another country, it may be a problem. The XKB extension was provided for that purpose. If you look in your X configuration file, usualy in /etc/X11 called XF86Config, you will find a section about the keyboard. There, you may specify several parameters, including the keymap and keycodes to use. For a list of available keymaps, you can look in your X directory. Most of those keymaps are also available from the graphical configuration program, XF86Setup |
