Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
have you noticed the hal update? |

It just informed me about some trouble concerning my keyboard-layout. |
| 6 |
Keyboards as well as mice are now added automatically to xorg (and the |
| 7 |
evdev driver is used - hooray! always wanted to use evdev). |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Yet, they are always added with us keyboard layout. So hal's ebuild |
| 10 |
suggested, that i use gnome's keyboard settings or that i use setxkbmap |
| 11 |
to override the us-setting. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
So my first thought was: how to hell do i tell gdm to use "de" keyboard |
| 14 |
layout? |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
So what's the answer? How do i do it properly? How do i tell xorg-x11 to |
| 17 |
use "de" layout for all hot-plugged keyboards? |
| 18 |
Because gdm offers no keyboard-settings, as far as i know. And since my |
| 19 |
keyboard is "qwertz", i see a "y" when typing a "z" in gdm. gnome |
| 20 |
settings kick in AFTER logging in - so that's pretty useless for gdm. |
