Yes, this is the same as I mentioned before: /usr/sbin/xkbctrl not found -- 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.

xkbctrl no longer exists (sax2 was dropped).
Cool that I was not noticed at all :-) Anyway, YaST is using /usr/sbin/xkbctrl to get the info about X11 layout for given language (console map). If this data was dropped as well, I need to have another way to know the necessary information. However, I think it would be better to leave xkbctrl, and /usr/share/sax/sysp/maps/Keyboard.map even without sax2 functionality, and new solution should be created after 11.3 release. -- 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.

xkbctrl no longer exists (sax2 was dropped).
For example, it _is_ part of openSUSE 11.3 M6. So was it removed later? -- 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.

Could it be that yast2-x11 is no longer installed during firstboot/second stage? In that case YaST is no longer running setxkbmap.
This is not the case of firstboot/second stage, but initial stage of installation. setxkbmap is needed there, and YaST is (was) using xkbctrl there. Steffen removed it and says it was dropped. Is that true? If not (and I think it should not be when we do not have a replacement), xkbctrl (and /usr/share/sax/sysp/maps/Keyboard.map as well) should be returned to inst-sys. -- 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.

And BTW, even in firstboot YaST calls setxkbmap if keyboard step is part of firstboot configuration. If you want to drop these data required by YaST, please talk to me how should we find a solution, but I'd prefer not touch it for 11.3. -- 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.

As already said sax2-tools has been readded.
So, Steffen, please return it to inst-sys.
I believe it makes sense to switch to /etc/X11/xdm/Keyboard.map, which is now also used by /etc/X11/xdm/keytable.
What should switch (and when)? YaST is directly using only xkbctrl, so if xkbctrl uses different file, I do not care. -- 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.
