using fluxbox does not read proper keymap
Hi People
I am using a Danish keyboard, and it works fine with gnome,
But now I have installed fluxbox instead, but it seems that it somehow forgets my keyboard configuration.
and advice
Try this command:
$ sudo localectl set-keymap dk
Hi Magic,
It didn't help,
I am able to change keyboard after startup using
setxkbmap dk
I have tried to add that to ~/.fluxbox/startup right before [exec] fluxbox but that doesn't change anything either
I have also tried to add the following
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
Option "XkbLayout" "dk"
EndSection
to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
but that didn't help either...
I am using the horrible gnome3 login manager (the one that slowly fades while testing my patience :) ) and I have gnome3 installed...
Does this help?
nope, doesn't work :(
I Tried your suggestion of adding setxkbmap dk before exit 0 in /etc/gdm/Init/Default
and was about to add XKBLAYOUT="dk" to /etc/default/keyboard, but it was already there :(
I also Do have Danish keybaord using the terminal via ctrl+alt+F1
I just tried to login as guest... and Then I do have Danish keyboard...
edit: Just to be clear, If I login using, for instance gnome flashback, then I do get Danish keyboard...
I am a translator!
builcomplete - my keyboard was having issues when I switched to Trisquel 3 months ago. Solved it by going to
System settings - Language support - the last entry "keyboard input method system" has to be changed to "none" (Ibus is the default)
cheers
Would this be of use?

thanks SuperTramp
Turning of Ibus did the trick :)
Lembas, thanks for the link also, As supertramps suggestion already solved my problem.
I think I will leave it at that.
