Hi since updating the XFree version to the latest version (via cygwin setup), I always have the US keyboard layout. Note that I had the appropriate UK layout before without having to do anything at all (I did skip a few updates so unfortunately can't tell you from when this happened).
So, I tried to read the FAQ and did the following: I modified startxwin.bat to do: XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -emulate3buttons -xkblayout uk but that didn't help. Then I tried the testing procedure given on the web page: setxkbmap de -model pc105 but I get the following: Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property Use defaults: rules - 'xorg' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us' Couldn't find rules file (xorg) Potentially related is that I don't seem to have /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb, but only /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb.old-1 What can I do? (running NT 4.0 sp6a and the latest cygwin according to what setup says) Thanks!
