Canadian Multilingual Standard keyboard layout

boily · 2007-03-18 03:30:04

I'd like to know how to get the Canadian Multilingual Standard keyboard layout on my computer.

In my xorg.conf, the layout is set to "ca", but it corresponds to a Canadian French layout (which is slightly different). The same happens if I type "setxkbmap ca" in a terminal.

Please can anyone help me?

That is strange. The ca layout should give you the multi keyboard. The Canadian French layout use ca(fr). Could you post your entire keyboard section from your xorg.conf?

BTW, what version of xkeyboard-config are you using? I'm using 0.6 because 0.9 cause problems for some people.

There is my xorg.conf relevant section:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "ca"
Option "XkbVariant" ""
EndSection

And I have xkeyboard-config 0.9 .

Try replacing ca by ca(multi)
