Re: Trying to make 9front work on QWERTZ

I am not sure I will solve your problem, but maybe give some
input. I had a similar problem (That the '<' key to the right of
the left shift key on ISO-style keyboards didn't work) on a Bell
Labs Plan 9 on my Raspberry PI (though it might nowadays, it is
an old installation on that sdcard). It does however work on 9front
on my Pi. If I remember correctly, I had the key working on a PC
running Bell Labs Plan 9 if I connected the keyboard to PS/2, but
not when connected to USB using a converter. But again, on 9front
it works both on PS/2 and USB on that PC for me.

Subject: [9fans] Trying to make 9front work on QWERTZ 

Ahoy, 

I've been trying to give 9front a test ride for a while now, and I'm 
stuck with one specific problem. 

So I have a German keyboard layout where <, > and | are on the same 
key. However, while I have no problems with these keys, in 9front the 
key seems to be dead on all of my keyboards. I tried quite a lot of 
them, both inside QEMU on two different computers and on a dedicated 
ThinkPad. Also, using the de layout does not fix that. 

Is that a known problem or a configuration error?
