Ok, that's fine, it just overrides the builtin one then. > quilla:SDSSPrettypics>xdosemu & > [1] 3541 > quilla:SDSSPrettypics>ERROR: Unable to open console to > evaluate the keyboard map. > Please specify your keyboard map explicitly via the > $_layout option ERROR: Unable to open console to evaluate > the keyboard map.

Nothing to do with global.conf I see. This is a known problem (apart from the fact that for remote X sessions it is wrong to query the console on the remote machine): in the next version (it's in CVS now) $_layout="auto" will query the X server about the keyboard layout so in many cases it will no longer be necessary to explicitly specify $_layout="us" etc. Bart - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
