I'm sorry, I'm not sure that I follow you. From where else should I have included the "noah" symbols? This is what I have done (the unshown parts of the files have not been touched): ✈demios:~$ tail /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us -n 68 xkb_symbols "noah" { name[Group1]= "USA - Noah Ergonomic"; include "pc(noah)" key <TLDE> { [ 5, percent ] }; key <AE01> { [ 4, dollar ] }; key <AE02> { [ 3, numbersign ] }; key <AE03> { [ 2, at ] }; key <AE04> { [ 1, exclam ] }; key <AE05> { [ Escape ] }; key <AE06> { [ grave, asciitilde ] }; key <AE07> { [ minus, underscore ] }; key <AE08> { [ equal, plus ] }; key <AE09> { [ 6, asciicircum ] }; key <AE10> { [ 7, ampersand ] }; key <AE11> { [ 8, asterisk ] }; key <AE12> { [ 9, parenleft ] }; key <BKSP> { [ 0, parenright ] }; key <TAB> { [ q, Q ] }; key <AD01> { [ w, W ] }; key <AD02> { [ e, E ] }; key <AD03> { [ r, R ] }; key <AD04> { [ t, T ] }; key <AD05> { [ Tab, Tab ] }; key <AD06> { [ bracketleft, braceleft ] }; key <AD07> { [ bracketright, braceright ] }; key <AD08> { [ y, Y ] }; key <AD09> { [ u, U ] }; key <AD10> { [ i, I ] }; key <AD11> { [ o, O ] }; key <AD12> { [ p, P ] }; key <BKSL> { [ slash, question ] }; key <CAPS> { [ a, A ] }; key <AC01> { [ s, S ] }; key <AC02> { [ d, D ] }; key <AC03> { [ f, F ] }; key <AC04> { [ g, G ] }; key <AC05> { [ Return ] }; key <AC06> { [ apostrophe, quotedbl ] }; key <AC07> { [ Return ] }; key <AC08> { [ h, H ] }; key <AC09> { [ j, J ] }; key <AC10> { [ k, K ] }; key <AC11> { [ l, L ] }; key <RTRN> { [ semicolon, colon ] }; key <LFSH> { [ z, Z ] }; key <AB01> { [ x, X ] }; key <AB02> { [ c, C ] }; key <AB03> { [ v, V ] }; key <AB04> { [ b, B ] }; key <AB05> { [ Backspace, Caps_Lock ] }; key <AB06> { [ Super_L, Super_R ] };//test these key <AB07> { [ backslash, bar ] }; key <AB08> { [ n, N ] }; key <AB09> { [ m, M ] }; key <AB10> { [ comma, less ] }; key <RTSH> { [ period, greater ] }; key <LCTL> { [ Control_L ] }; key <LWIN> { [ Alt_L ] }; key <LALT> { [ Shift_L ] }; key <SPCE> { [ space ] }; key <RALT> { [ Shift_R ] }; key <RWIN> { [ Alt_R ] };//test this key <RCTL> { [ Control_R ] }; }; ✈demios:~$ ✈demios:~$ tail /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc -n 4 partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "noah" { modifier_map Lock { <AB05> }; }; ✈demios:~$ -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
