The default and recommended "no xorg.conf" setup doesn't play nice |
| 29 |
with keyboard layouts. You need to set one on your xorg.conf or |
| 30 |
another X.org init script. |

I love the idea that Xorg now just works (TM) without any |
| 33 |
configuration file, but it could generate something based on what it |
| 34 |
detected on the first time, or something. |
