Changing Xkblayout From US to Gbr
« on: February 05, 2009, 06:04:05 PM »
I'm trying to change the TC keyboard layout from the default "us" to "gbr" so that the " and @ keys are not transposed as they are at present.

I can't find xorg.conf anywhere so I downloaded kmaps.tce thinking it just needed a root CLI of "loadkmap" to do the job. Not so.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm guessing you did this while in X.  See this FAQ entry should you want more info: http://www.tinycorelinux.com/faq.html#keyboard

Hi hats

Thanks for the link.

One slight problem arose; "fi-latin9.kmap" seems to be aimed at Finnish users so I added "loadkmap
< /usr/share/kmap/uk.kmap" to /opt/bootlocal.sh instead and it works fine.
