Hello! To reduce my RSI syndrome problems, I'm trying to switch to a dvorak keyboard. Since I do lots of programming, I decided to try the programmer-dvorak keyboard from
http://www.kaufmann.no/roland/dvorak/index.html I started with the xmodmap-version of the layout. I noticed several problems with this keymap: - When the screensaver with password-protection is activated, there's no way to change the keymap. Then there's almost no chance to unlock the screensaver if the map is different from the physical keyboard and you are not familiar with it. The only way is to kill X with CTRL-ALT-Backspace and completely loose the session :-( It would be fine if the screensaver would offer some way to switch the keyboard when the user tries to unlock the keyboard. - Once the dvorak keyboard is activated, switching to vterms stops working. When I switch back and forth a couple of times between dvorak and german nodeadkeys, switching between virtual desktops stops, too. There seem to exist lots of methods to switch keymaps (xmodmap, xkbm, kxkb, kde-contorlcenter, ...), I am completely lost here. What is the proper way to create and install a new keymap in a way that it can be selected via KDE control-center? Where can I find the sources/documentation of the existing keymaps, so that I can start from there and compile the programmer-dvorak from it? How do I compile it to an installable keymap? How do I install it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
