setxkbmap onboot ?
« on: April 22, 2022, 08:47:41 AM »
Hi

I found an extension for setting my keyboard in the GUI but I can't use it in the /opt/bootlocal.sh nor /opt/bootsync.sh because the x server start after this 2 file.
Somebody know how to use the command

setxkboard fr
Just after the GUI has started ?
It's fine

Hi MrToga
Create a file (any name you want) in your  .X.d  directory containing:
Code: [Select]
setxkboard fr &The command will get executed once X is running.

Update :

I didn't put the file in executable and I got the wrong command, the command was :

setxkbmap fr &

(My bad I'm dumb)

It's fine

Hi MrToga
You know the old saying:
Garbage in, garbage out.

You gave me garbage, and garbage is what I returned.  ;D
