Hello winux,

I'm surprised because the French keyboard works very well for me. Did you have a look at the French forum for DSL users ?

Spock: That's an excellent suggestion. I didn't even know it was existing. Thx a lot

Robert: in addition to looking at the French forum, I just loaded the French Kaella Knoppix live CD to test what you said. I'll do the 2 things in parallel and I'll let, to both of you, know the result of my search.

Thx again and have a very nice day. Today in Paris the weather is not so good !!

for your info roberts, I just opened, on my old PC, Kaella Knoppix which is, as far as I understood, a French version of the Knoppix. The keyboard works perfectly in French.

Do you know, in that normal full Knoppix, where I could find the corresponding French keyboard map in order maybe to send it to you for testing purposes (if the French forum brings no results). You will indicate me what to do, just as you did w/ Thai keyboard!!!!

Do you think it's relevant? anyway I keep on digging on the DSL French forum. If I find a solution, I'll of course report it on that English forum to help the others.

Have a nice day

Usually in Knoppix based system I would look
/usr/share/keymaps/i386

There are usually directories by keyboard layout.
Then you can use the command
find . -name "*fr"

This will show all the keyboards that may be french.
Be sure to manually load it with the loadkeys command to be sure you have the correct one.

Then you can email to me. I will update then.
