Hello,
I recently did a clean install of 2008.11 preview build 100a, and now my
keyboard behaves a bit strange. In my previous install of 2008.05 it worked as
I wanted it. The computer is a Lenovo ThinkPad T61p.
First: I have a english keyboard ( computer bought in the US) but as I'm
located in Sweden I need to use some Swedish characters. I have a keymap file
that lets me use r_alt+{ ;,',[ } to type them. But in 2008.11 the r_alt key is
detected as ModeSwitch according to xev.
When reading /var/log/xorg.0.log the keyboard is detected as a sun_type6_usb.
So i tried to modify this, and created a /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the following
def for keyboard:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XbkModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
EndSection
But after restarting X the keyboard still gets detected as sun_type6_usb.
By the way, emacs does not deteced l_alt as meta, which is showstopper...
How can i fix this?
Best regards
Andreas Nilsson
