iv'e seem to have lost the ability to go from the desktop (KDE) into console using that command. This all comes after the xorg update, xorg.conf has been edited for new paths, the mouse section was edited with protocol "IMPS/2" instead of "auto" which gave me back wheel scrolling, but im not sure what to do for the keyboard section.

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" ""
#Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection

thx for any help.

on a side note i've also seem to have lost the use of the "Windows" key on my keyboard. i noticed it when the shortcuts in amarok no longer take place. Even though the shortcuts are still set.

change
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
to
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"

hwd doesn't work with the modular xorg. See http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=17246&start=15
for a possible fix.

it would probably be better if you ran Xorg -configure and added options as you need them from your old config.

Not the version in the extra repo. That's why I posted the link. I agree with Penguin that it might be better not to use it. In my case, it just manually modified my old xorg.conf.

Didn't checked in which repo it was...
/me uses always 'xorgconfig' and 'nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' which fits the job nicely for me.

Guys, I found the aswer here
basically, all you have to do is:

setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us

So, it seems to be a problem with the keymaps
It doesn't recognize us-acentos or us_intl

Snowman · 2006-02-23 02:03:06

the keymaps were renamed. Try us(intl)
