|
I got a DELL XPS M1210 laptop that I have setup to work with a USB mouse, however, I simply seem to be unable to make my USB keyboard work in addition to the built in keyboard. The thing is, most keys actually work as expected, but some keys are mapped incorrectly (e.g. down key is mapped to enter  ). Here are the relevant parts of my xorg.conf.
| Code: | # **********************************************************************
# Core keyboard's InputDevice section
# **********************************************************************
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "DELL XPS M1210 Keyboard"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Name" "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbVariant" "winkeys"
EndSection |
and
| Code: | # **********************************************************************
# ServerLayout sections.
# **********************************************************************
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "DELL XPS M1210 Main Layout"
Screen "Screen0"
InputDevice "DELL XPS M1210 Touchpad" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Logitech VX Revolution" "SendCoreEvents" "1"
InputDevice "DELL XPS M1210 Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "USB Keyboard" "SendCoreEvents" "1"
EndSection |
