[gentoo-user] Memory leak

[Alain Didierjean]

My so called memory, located somewhere in what's left of my old brain.

I can't remember nor figure out how to set kdm keymap to azerty.
Help welcome,

I set mine in an xorg config file to get qwertz not only in KDM but all of X by
default:

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/input.conf
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Keyboard0"
        Driver          "kbd"
        Option          "XkbRules"              "xorg"
        Option          "XkbModel"              "pc102"
        Option          "XkbLayout"             "de"
        Option          "XkbVariant"            "deadkeys"
EndSection

The right place for this in a modern X11 is evdev (event device). The other input devices are deprecated in favor of evdev. There is an old news item with regard to this in the portage. You might find it from some archive.

Any how the X11 is the right place to set the keymap. Then it is set system wise and affects all display-managers you might have.

You’re right and I actually have both in input.conf – an evdev section and
the input section shown above. When I find the time, I shall clean that up.
Plus I think it already has precedence, as I sometimes use the three-finger-
salute to revive a hanging system (usually OOM situations).

Section "InputClass"
	Identifier	"evdev keyboard catchall"
	MatchIsKeyboard	"on"
	MatchDevicePath	"/dev/input/event*"
	Driver		"evdev"

	Option		"XkbLayout"		"de,us"
#	Option		"XkbVariant"		"deadgraveacute"
	Option		"XkbOptions"		"terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection

Have a look in /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty/

If your desired keymap is say:

  fr-latin9.map.gz

then add fr-latin9 in your /etc/conf.d/keymaps:

keymap="fr-latin9"

then reboot, or use the loadkeys command:

  loadkeys /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty/fr-latin9.map.gz

if you don't want to reboot.

I do have keymap set to "fr-latin9". It works for the Desktopk, not for kdm !!

To Frank Steinmetzger : I used to set the keymap in xorg, there's no more a xorg file in my setup. Too bad!

I assume that you also have your LINGUAS set accordingly too?  Have you 
checked the keyboard settings in KDE in case KDM can be configured there too?

Just a suggestion that more accurate subject lines are more likely to
get you help, since an X11 expert might skip over an email thread that
purports to be discussing memory leaks, while the valgrind experts are
probably annoyed at the same time.  It also makes the archives more
useful for posterity.
