@cindex keymap

@cindex keyboard layout
|
||||||
|
This procedure is especially useful to configure a different keyboard layout
|
||||||
|
than the default US keymap. For instance, to use the ``bépo'' keymap by
|
||||||
|
default on the display manager:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@example
|
||||||
|
(define bepo-evdev
|
||||||
|
"Section \"InputClass\"
|
||||||
|
Identifier \"evdev keyboard catchall\"
|
||||||
|
Driver \"evdev\"
|
||||||
|
MatchIsKeyboard \"on\"
|
||||||
|
Option \"xkb_layout\" \"fr\"
|
||||||
|
Option \"xkb_variant\" \"bepo\"
|
||||||
|
EndSection")
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||

|

|

|
||||||
|
(xorg-configuration-file
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
(list bepo-evdev)))))))))
|
||||||
|
@end example
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The @code{MatchIsKeyboard} line specifies that we only apply the configuration
|
||||||
|
to keyboards. Without this line, other devices such as touchpad may not work
|
||||||
|
correctly because they will be attached to the wrong driver. In this example,
|
||||||
|
the user typically used @code{setxkbmap fr bepo} to set their favorite keymap
|
||||||
|
once logged in. The first argument corresponds to the layout, while the second
|
||||||
|
argument corresponds to the variant. The @code{xkb_variant} line can be omitted
|
||||||
|
to select the default variant.
