Quote (roberts @ Jan. 07 2006,10:24) | From your post it appears that you have only tried one french keyboard map.
fr.kmap.gz
Yet it appears that the following might be worth trying:
fr-latin0.kmap.gz fr-latin1.kmap.gz fr-latin9.kmap.gz fr-pc.kmap.gz fr-x11.kmap.gz mac-usb-fr.kmap.gz fr_CH.kmap.gz fr_CH-latin1.kmap.gz mac-usb-fr_CH-latin1.kmap.gz
These are from the standard knoppix base from which we are derived.
I would not know which one(s) work or not. Please give these a shot and let us know. Maybe we should have a poll of these french keymaps to know which one are not being used or are broken? |
Thx for your answer Robert. I thought there was something else I missed. I'm then gonna keep on trying every situation and for sure, I'll let you know about the result. For your info I already tried : latin 1 and 9, pc and X11 because the rest seems to be usb (I'm ps2) or CH (Swiss KB), but I'll try anyway, just to make sure.
If it happens none works, are you willing to bring a new pattern to cope w/ French needs ? I'm sure a great deal of the 60 million French people will love this lite s/w, as long as they can communicate w/ their own KB.
I'm gonna work now!!! using Ctrl+Alt+Tab $ xsetup.sh
By the way Robert, as you seem to be a quite aware guy. I've tried to modify /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig whose keyboard is initiated at "us". Impossible to turn it into French, either from beaver or from vi (terminal). Any reason for that ? should I use a special priviledge? maybe all my Pbs come from that? do you agree?
Anyway Thx again for your help, bye
PS : for your info, on my other Ubuntu PC (which works perfectly w/ French KB) I've got in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (by the way I've no access to this w/ DSL, why?) identifier: generic keyboard driver: Kbd option: coreKeyboard option: KbdRules xorg option: KbdModel pc105 option: KbdLayout fr option: KbdVariant latin9
The only thing I don't have access to is pc105, and maybe that's the Pb, keyboard limited to 100 or less combinations. Does it seem relevant to ypu?
