The procedure for modifying the keyboard layout on your XO is described [[Customizing_NAND_images#Keyboard|here]]. |
|||
There are two mechanisms on the laptop that are used to configure the keyboards: one for the console and one for the X Window System (and Sugar). |
|||
===Console=== |
|||
Console keyboard layout files are in <tt>/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386</tt>. From the Terminal activity (or the console), you can use the 'loadkeys' program to assign a keymap to the the console. For example: |
|||
loadkeys es |
|||
for Spanish |
|||
loadkeys us |
|||
for English |
|||
===X Window System=== |
|||
X Window System keyboard symbol files are in <tt>/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols</tt>. Again, from the Terminal activity (or the console), you can use the <tt>setxkbmap</tt> to assign a symbol table to the X Window System. For example: |
|||
setxkbmap es |
|||
Instructions for setting up keyboard switching in [[Terminal]] are on the [[Customizing NAND images]] page. On bilingual XOs, the multiplication/division key is replaced with a keyboard switching key. |
|||
for Spanish |
|||
Changing the language of the keyboard is independent of changing the language currently displayed. The language currently displayed can be changed by using the Language section of the [[Sugar Control Panel]]. |
