Wrong keyboard layout..?

Post by mchlbk »

Hi,

Im trying out LXDE on top of Xubuntu on my new netbook. Everything seems to work as it should except the keyboard layout.

In a default xfce-session its Danish but in lxde its something else and I cant figure out how to change it.

Any ideas?

:)

One option would be to include xfce-mcs-manager into your X login and so you could use Xfce config tools for mouse and keyboard. But that would cost some resources.
You can edit your keyboard by hand in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and add this to the keyboard section:

Code: Select all

Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "dk"

sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
