Hi, A few weeks ago I upgraded to woody, and have been updating things since then. Recently, my xfree86 v3.3.6-11 (Mach64) server was thrown out and replaced with xfree86 v4.0.1, which I think is good. But now I have a problem with my keyboard. I've been trying to configure things both manually, and using xf86config, as xf86cfg does not work yet.
The problem is mainly with the 'Alt Gr' key: previously I used 'Alt Gr'+2 to get @ and 'Alt Gr'+4 to get $, and so on with all the number keys. This no longer works. Also the norwegian letters 'æøå' does not work in the terminals, but works ok in netscape. This is my keyboard configuration from my v3.3.6-11, in which the above worked perfectly: Section "Keyboard" Protocol "Standard" AutoRepeat 500 30 LeftAlt Meta RightAlt Meta ScrollLock Compose RightCtl Control XkbKeycodes "xfree86" XkbTypes "default" XkbCompat "default" XkbSymbols "us(pc101)" XkbGeometry "pc" XkbRules "xfree86" XkbModel "pc104" XkbLayout "no" XkbVariant "nodeadkeys" EndSection My current keyboard configuration with v4.0.1, in which the above does not work: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc104" Option "XkbLayout" "no" Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys" Option "LeftAlt" "Meta" Option "RightAlt" "Meta" Option "ScrollLock" "Compose" Option "RightCtl" "Control" EndSection ---- Some log information: XFree86 Version 4.0.1d / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400) Release Date: 27 October 2000 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems.
