+If you have an international keyboard layout, you should set the option
+<c>XkbModel</c> to <c>pc102</c> or <c>pc105</c>, as this will allow mapping of the
+additional keys specific to your keyboard.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Deadkeys allow you to press keys that will not show immediately but will be
+combined with another letter to produce a single character such as é,è,á,à,
+etc. Setting <c>XkbVariant</c> to <c>nodeadkeys</c> allows input these special
+characters into X terminals.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+If you would like to switch between more than one keyboard layout (for example
+English and Russian), all you have to do is add a few lines to
+<path>xorg.conf</path> that specify the desired layouts and the shortcut
+command.
