X11R7 on NetBsd
I installed NetBsd on a older computer, and it is working basicly.
This is my first time with NetBsd, However, I am having trouble getting the spanish keyboard to work after I 'startx'. From the console, when I first boot, the keyboard is fine, and the keys work as expected, it is after I start the xsever that it become a problem. I did read some manuals and info,..generated a Code:
# X -config ~/xorg.conf.new http://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-x.html But I can not find any X11 in /etc as mentioned: Quote:
for a german keyboard, and reveseing some keys,...I do not want to do that. Just want it to know it is a spanish keyboard, no reversed keys, etc. So, what to put in the file, and where to place the . conf file. Thank you

Thank you Shep,
Those are what I have looked at, and I would like to using the example they show, or one of the ones from here: Quote:
Quote:
no /etc/X11 or /etc/X11/XF86Config directories and files. So where do I put the "xorg.conf ." file ? Where do I move the "xorg.conf.new" to ? I do realize I can make the X11 directory ,(maybe that is what I need to do?) and then using the 'mv' command, move the xorg.conf.new file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf , but I am not sure if the X11 directory should all ready exist , or I need to create it. Thanks again,

Ok, thanks ,...that explains why it does not yet exist, so I will try using /etc/X11 first.
thanks ___----- edited --- __ Thanks, I got it working now,... Actually it turned out the X11 directory was there, but since it starts with X and when I looked, using 'ls', I did not see it, expecting it to be at the bottom,... When I did Code:
mkdir /etc/X11 Kind of dumb on my part,... so when I tried : Code:
ls | more So then from there it was easy, I move the xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11/xorg.conf . I did also still need to edit it, Code:
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbLayout" "es" #Just needed to add this to it. EndSection thanks every one.
