Hey all I've got a tricky problem here that I can't seem to find any documentation for, so I was hoping someone would be able to help... I'm using Mandrake 7.0 on a us laptop keyboard (Toshiba satellite pro) and I can't get my backspace key to work as such and not as a delete key. Here's the contents of some of my configs. /etc/sysconfig/keyboard: KEYTABLE=us-latin1 BACKSPACE=delete The above works fine on console and in Eterm under X. /etc/X11/XF86Config: XkbKeycodes "xfree86" XkbTypes "default" XkbCompat "default" XkbSymbols "us(pc101)" XkbGeometry "pc" XkbRules "xfree86" XkbModel "pc101" XkbLayout "us_intl" XkbVariant "nodeadkeys" My keyboard works fine with this but the backspace key only works as a delete key, deleting forwards instead of back in programs such as Netscape and StarOffice. If I take out the Xkblayout "us_intl" then it seems to work fine again, but I need to use us_intl to get accents to work using a compose sequence. I'd be grateful for any help or pointer towards any documentation as I'm getting a bit frustated and I've got 12,000 words to type for Monday!
