Hi i have compiled and installed xorg 1.7.7 with all the xkb options.
Now the keyboard is detected but i have to press twice to get that
character with some peculiar behaviour say typing 's' will give me an
option for saving etc. I have checked with setxkboption with the
command
[root at localhost ~]# setxkbmap -print -verbose 10
Setting verbose level to 10
locale is C
Applied rules from xorg:
model: pc105
layout: us
Trying to build keymap using the following components:
keycodes: xfree86+aliases(qwerty)
types: complete
compat: complete
symbols: pc+us+inet(pc105)
geometry: pc(pc105)
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc+us+inet(pc105)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
and the xorg config section has following part in the keyboard section
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
and the xorg log contains the following part for keyboard section
(II) LoadModule: "kbd"
(II) Loading /usr/local/xf86-input-keyboard-1.4.0/lib/xorg/modules/input/kbd_drv.so
(II) Module kbd: vendor="X.Org Foundation"

/usr/local/xkeyboard-config-2.0/share/X11/xkb/compiled/server-0.xkm
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(II) UnloadModule: "kbd"
Also server-0.xkm file is there in the right place
Am i missing something ?
