13 well, the language required is german, so my rc.config says
14 KEYMAP="de-latin1". That's ok as the umlauts etc. are mapped correctly, but
15 special keys like the previously mentioned ones are not available. On the
16 MacOSX german keyboard one was required to press something like alt-7 to get
17 a pipe-character and alt-n for a tilde, but this doesn't work on Gentoo with
18 my current settings. I also tried to load mac-de-latin1 as keymap, which
19 rendered my keyboard completely unusable.
