Xorg Keyboard mapping

[narcolepsy]

Hi, is there anyway to force Xorg to choose which nationality of keyboard I have?

I have the following in my xorg.conf


Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection


but I have both a PS/2 keyboard and a dell usb keyboard in, and it seems to pick the "us" layout for both. weird.

Thanks in advance

If you are using HAL, try reading this post.

thanks a lot ale, seems like a pretty cryptic solution to a simple problem!

With xorg 7.4 I think you need to tell the server in xorg.conf not to autoadd your devices:

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"

EndSection

But you should correctly setup both the mouse and kb.
