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...

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...

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

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.
