I fiddled around heavily with my openSUSE 11.2 system (upgrading it to 11.3 M7, not being satisfied, downgrading again) and eventually leaving it with a US keyboard setting. Changing the keyboard setting to German went fine for non-X11 applications, but the whole X11 still insisted to operate with a US keyboard layout. The key (sic) to the solution was the file /etc/X11/xdm/keytable4hal. This script is executed each time the XDM is restarted and finds out the correct keyboard settings. However, it does not do it quite right: If the file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-keymap.fdi exists, it simply reuses the keyboard layout from the previous X11 session. Therefore the workaround is this: rm /fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-keymap.fdi /etc/init.d/xdm restart This recreates a proper /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-keymap.fdi and off you go. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
