Bugzilla Automation <[email protected]> has asked freebsd-x11 (Nobody) <[email protected]> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 252235: x11/xorg: MacBook Pro 8,3 faulty key mapping https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252235 --- Description --- 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. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-x11 To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
