In debian-installer, one selects a *console* layout; only a subset
of keymaps from console-data are included because of space constraints.

Hi,
I just uploaded xkb-data 0.8-13 into unstable, it
is available at http://people.debian.org/~barbier/tmp/
and will reach mirrors in almost a day.
This version is very similar to 0.8-12exp4, I believe
that it is pretty solid, but needs more polishing.
We can discuss to change default settings a

Hi,
xkb-data 0.8-12exp2 is in experimental. The macintosh_old2 version
has been removed from this version, there are only 2 models:
- macintosh_old (old kernels with ADB keycodes)
- macintosh (new kernels with PC keycodes)
But 2 new options are added: apple:badmap and apple:goodmap to change

All your problems should have been fixed
As explained in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2006/08/msg00336.html
I need your help to fix Macintosh keyboards. These changes
will be pushed upstream when known bugs are fixed, and I
would like to do it as soon as possible.
Since all reports so far complained that and
keys are swap

Hi folks,
PC keyboards have been redesigned in Xfree86 4.3 to allow loading
several layouts (for instance us+ru+fr); in xkeyboard-config, all
previous PC layouts have been dropped and replaced by these new
layouts.
But Macintosh keyboards have not been updated, mainly because
upstream does not hav
