japanese keyboards and xorg (and macs?)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


When running the installer, my Japanese iBook takes the US keyboard map, which is not totally evil, just a little bit confusing at times.

In openBSD, I have been able to get most of the keyboard mapped to the Japanese keyboard, merely by copying the jp keyboard mapping file from /etc/X11/xkb/symbols into /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh and setting the keyboard to jp in xorg.conf. But two keys remain unaccessible, and one key does not remap, leaving me unable to type underscore, right bracket, and right brace in the Japanese map. Again, on the openBSD system, I tried the xev utility, and determined that the two keys that are unaccessible are just not generating events.

If I get Fedora 9 running on this iBook I expect I'll see the same thing.

Has anyone here has seen this kind of problem? or could anyone give me some suggestions?
