I gonna try to summarise the state of my installation of linuxSuSE on my iMac rev B.
- Keyboard problem...
I started up linuxSuSE cd1 and used the graphical yast2 installer. First it asked me to choose my language, then my keyboard and my timezone. Whatever the keyboard configuration i choose, i could not have anything else than the QWERTY configuration. Under X window i had no real keymap, it was just enough to swap to the console mode and to try to fix it. I used the french iMac keymap available at : http://www.chez.com/bentoi/linuxppc/fr-imac.tar.gz and i modified my XF86Config file, adding XkbDisable and XkbKeymap "usb-fr-macintosh" in the Keyboard section. This work fine ! ... but the XF86Config file is scratched at each linux boot...
I'm having the same trouble with my Rev. B iMac and the US keyboard. I've applied all the suggested patches, but still no luck. Console mode (run level 2), as described above, works fine. It's only under X that there is a problem. Has anybody been able to work this problem out yet? Thanks for any assistance you can provide. - Bill -- Bill Sofko Publisher, Contrariwise
