Bug ID: 252235
Summary: x11/xorg: MacBook Pro 8,3 faulty key mapping
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: amd64
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)

Under X11, the ` and ~ keys return < and > by default.
Found a fix in this thread:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/33528/setxkbmap-for-macbook-pro-us
The problem is the TLDE and LSGT mappings are switched in
/usr/local/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us.
Problem does not occur on a MacBook Pro 2,2. Maybe the keyboard scan codes are
different in newer models?
Key mappings are correct in a vt console using keymap="us.macbook".
The following does NOT fix the issue:
<<<[email protected]>>> /home/bacon 48 # cat
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/macbook-xkb.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbVariant" "mac"
EndSection
I hacked around it for now by adding
setxkbmap -layout us -variant mac
to the Xsession file, but this of course only works after login. Keyboard is
still confused in the xdm panel, so passwords constaining ~ or ` won't work.
