Hi,

I've (re)-installed gentoo recently, but when I've tried to configure Xorg's keyboard layout without success.
I've done it a couple times and never had any issue with it though, I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

My keyboard physical layout is "be" (Belgium), variant "latin1"

Excerpt of my xorg.conf (relevant part) :

Code:
Section "InputDevice"

    Identifier  "Keyboard1"
    Driver      "kbd"

    Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"

    Option "XkbRules"   "xorg"
    Option "XkbModel"   "logicdpa2"
    Option "XkbLayout"  "be"

EndSection


Does anyone may have an idea ? I'm using the last version of everything (arch user) as of today.
Have tried different things already, but any idea is welcomed.

Becquse it4s reqlly qnnoying to zrite zith q zrong keyboqrd lqyout 1

Many Thanks,
Maxime

But I was wondering, do I have to do the same kind of things for my mouse and drawing tablet ? (wacom)

Hi,

Well, it isn't completely fixed yet.

My "basic" layout works fine, but I can't use "Alt Gr" + something, thus I can't compose accent.

It seems that it only occurs when I'm in OpenOffice ... it works in other programs like kwrite, firefox ... weird.

Anyone has an idea ?

Thanks,
Maxime

[EDIT]

Found the solution, you have to define the locales :
