Hi,
 
Did emerge told you to update some config files?

Hi there!

I'm in the = middle of a world update, but X stuff seems to be updated now.
The probl= em is that the keyboard does not work as before.

It's a german keyboard. Here are expected keys, and the results:
=DF \
=F6 [
=E4 ]
=FC @

Keys like @ (Alt-Gr q), | (Alt= -Gr <) and ~ (Alt-Gr +} do not work at all.
Same goes for console swi= tching via Ctrl-Alt-Fn.

There is a warning message in the X log, I assume this has to do with i= t:

[...]

There are quite some references to this message,= but many are unresolved.
Someone installed xkbutils, this did not help me, and I do not see why itshould. Some people xmodmap a lot, but this would be a workaround, while<= br>I am interested in a cleaner solution.


The weird thing is tha= t this happens only when using KDM, not if I startx
from the text console. Does this ring a bell for someone?
