XPhoton doesn't honor the XFree86 config file.

For international keyboard support in XPhoton:
download the xphoton source code:
http://mama.indstate.edu/users/liug/qnx/qnx62/src/xphoton.tgz
Then take a look at xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xphoton/sample.keys
and the 'XPhoton -keymap filename' option

It will be great if people can contribute those xphoton keymap files...
