https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1214653 Bug ID: 1214653 Summary: yast2 keyboard do not allow to set bépo (french) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.4 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: jonathan@mercier.paris QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Target Milestone: --- Found By: --- Blocker: --- Dear, I give a try to OpenSuse Leap 15, but I am unable to go further as they any way to set bépo layout kexyboard. I try from: 1. Leap installer : as bépo was missing I choose the french layout once installation has finished: 2. sudo yast2 keyboard: same layout proposal than given from installer 3. sudo yast2/zypper search : nothing relevant found The point (2) and (3) was done by trying to find each letter as I own only bépo keyboard. This layout is present on RHEL, RockyLinux 7,8,9 and Fedora. It would be much appreciate to add it Thanks best regards -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The new (systemd conformant) way to do this would use the "localectl" command, but localectl list-x11-keymap-models (or -keymap-models) does not show anything that sounds even vaguely similar. On my Leap 15.5, there are files that appear to be relevant below /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/bepo: fr-bepo-latin9.map.gz fr-bepo.map.gz But that whole directory is owned by package kbd-legacy which was declared obsolete several releases ago and a candidate to be dropped soon. Maybe this still works for the text console (outside of the graphical desktop environment): loadkeys fr-bepo /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml (owned by package xkeyboard-config) also has some entries that point into that general direction:
<variant> <configItem> <name>bepo</name> <description>French (Bepo, ergonomic, Dvorak way)</description> </configItem> </variant> <variant> <configItem> <name>bepo_latin9</name> <description>French (Bepo, ergonomic, Dvorak way, Latin-9 only)</description> </configItem> </variant>
You could try the keyboard selector of your desktop environment (KDE Plasma, GNOME, Xfce etc.). There are several dozens of keyboard models, but I don't know which of those might be Dvorak keyboards to check if any of them have a "Bepo" layout. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

It also says: "However, the use of the BÉPO layout, as well as that of the proposed new AZERTY layout, remained marginal." -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
