[opensuse-packaging] Forcing an specific type of keyboard
Hi: Im a bit lost, Im integrating all the tools to use "yubikeys" http://www.yubico.com/yubikey for the next opensuse release, so far everything is OK, but it is likely that users with "Dvorak" kb layouts will encounter issues. This usb device is reported to the OS as a keyboard, I need that everytime it is plugged into the system, the whole system forces it to recognized as an english 101 keys keyboard (by whole I mean, on every single application that uses the keyboard, X or console alike) My question is where is the most effective place to do this .. udev ? some other place in the X configuration ? and how ?

For X server 1.8+ Iam supposed to drop a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d Section "InputClass" Identifier "yubikey" MatchVendor "Yubico" MatchProduct "Yubikey" Option "XkbModel" "pc101" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbVariant" "intl" EndSection However, doing so changes the system keyboard layout as well (somehow it overrides it ;-( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

Not sure but I should imagine dbus makes a noise when it's plugged in. Dave P. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
