Problems with internaltion keyboard in X11
Hi, In Crux 3.4 I cannot make X11 to change keyboard layout. When I try to run setxkbmap I got following error. Not exactly helpful. I could not find anything obviously helpful in the internet. Any suggestion welcome. Wawrzek [niewod@sydney] /var/lib/xkb #>setxkbmap pl -v 10 Setting verbose level to 10 locale is C Warning!

Is this behavior new to you in 3.4?

Just a thought, but did you (re-)generate the locales and specify the profile for the shell? Best regards, Tim
Hi Tim and others, I found in rather convoluted way the reason. (I started Openbox, ran the same command in xterm and after leaving Xserver I notice an error message in text console I had started Xserver from - not sure why there was nothing in Xorg). The problem is in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pl file - more precisely line 500. How you can see below it's a uncommented `text horizontal line`. Could you please what do you have in your file? Is that a upstream problem? Something Crux did? Or maybe I did something wrong?

Greetings, I see the same in the pl file on my system. It looks like an upstream issue. The xkeyboard-config port is pretty straightforward: https://crux.nu/gitweb/?p=ports/xorg.git;a=blob;f=xkeyboard-config/Pkgfile;h... Regards, Matt
Hi, archlinux had a patch for this in 2.23.1: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/xkeyboard-config&id=f2f34e962a3b02eb19674cc97eb654da69e83fac the current version (2.24) lacks this patch, thus I guess, upstream solved it. regards, Erich On 10.07.2018 21:47, Matt Housh wrote:

Seems 2.24 made it past us all. Anyways, I've just pushed it to 3.4. Let me/us know if it solves it or if there are any other problems with it.
