I have an IBM Thinkpad T60 which I also use as desktop computer in a docking station, which has an externel keyboard (PS/2) and monitor. Unfortunately, the internal keyboard has a German layout, whereas the external one (an IBM Model M) has a US layout.
Is there a way to automatically distinguish between the two, maybe using different /dev's in different InputDevice sections in xorg.conf? I haven't found anything obvious. What I do now: I have defined aliases for the appropriate setxkbmap commands to switch between the layouts. But I can use them only after login and after opening a console. That means, e.g., I have to type my password sometimes in the wrong layout. The system is Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS. -- Klaus Wacker klaus.wac...@udo.edu Experimentelle Physik V http://www.physik.uni-dortmund.de/~wacker TU Dortmund Tel.: +49 231 755 3587 D-44221 Dortmund Fax: +49 231 755 4547 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-laptop-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
