Hi,

Just to confirm that he keyboard connects here now too thanks to the instructions. I have an Apple wireless keyboard. However, it has a French or Belgian layout, I succeeded in making it Azerty, but the symbols don't appear correctly (no accents).

Of course I adapted this snippet of code:

Code:

cd /usr/share/X11
cp -i xkb-chinook/symbols/pc xkb/symbols/.
cp -i xkb-chinook/symbols/fr xkb/symbols/.
cp -i xkb-chinook/symbols/be xkb/symbols/.
cp -i xkb-chinook/geometry/pc xkb/geometry/.

And the setxkbmap line became this:

Code:

 setxkbmap -device 4 -I/usr/share/X11/xkb-chinook -rules base -model pc105 -layout fr

Note that I removed one -I. If I leave it I get the
"Error loading new keyboard description"

Note also that using "-layout be" instead of "-layout fr" leads to the above error as well.

Maybe someone has gone further and knows a solution.
