Problem with italian keyboard
Hi, I've just installed debian unstable on my laptop (acer travelmate 342T) and I've some problem with the configuration of the keyboard (italian). I've configured the keyboard using kbdconfig and setting qwerty-italian-standard. Working with the console (without X11), I can use all the keys of my keyboard (included àèìòù) for writing login and password but after I'm logged I can use only english keys. I thougth it were a problem of my locales that initially were all to POSIX but after I set LC_ALL, LANG and LC_TYPE in my .bashrc nothing is changed. I've configured in my system following locales: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ locale -a C en_US en_US.iso88591 en_US.utf8 italian it_IT it_IT.iso88591 it_IT.utf8 [EMAIL PROTECTED] POSIX and added in my .bashrc the following lines: export LC_ALL=en_US export LANG=en_US export LC_CTYPE=iso_8859_1 Perhaps LC_TYPE isn't correct because with locale I've the following output: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ locale LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE=en_US LC_NUMERIC=en_US LC_TIME=en_US LC_COLLATE=en_US LC_MONETARY=en_US LC_MESSAGES=en_US LC_PAPER=en_US LC_NAME=en_US LC_ADDRESS=en_US LC_TELEPHONE=en_US LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_US LC_ALL=en_US Any suggestion?

I've configured the keyboard using kbdconfig and setting qwerty-italian-standard. The way I fixed, following suggestions directly from the X site: __ Section InputDevice Identifier Keyboard1 Driver Keyboard Option XkbRules xfree86 Option XkbModel pc104 Option XkbLayout us,es Option XKbOptions grp:alt_shift_toggle __ Now, with only pressing alt and shift I switch from one key board on the fly. No need to play anymore with anything else, nor to load any custom xmodmap. In your case, I would say, what you need is the block Option XkbRules xfree86 Option XkbModel pc104 Option XkbLayout us,it Option XKbOptions grp:alt_shift_toggle HTH -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
