Hi every body.
In SuSE 10.0 the configuration in SaX2 for the French Canadian keyboard is missing.
To make it work, i copyed all the files from directory "xkb" and all it's sub-directory from a SuSE 9.3 system.
/etc/X11/xkb
I then lunch SaX2 and selected the French Canada keyboard and that did it.
On a second computer it did not work right away. I had to reinstall the rpm: suse/noarch/xkeyboard-config-0.6-3.noarch.rpm (found in SuSE 10.0 cd 1) to get back to original and recopyed my SuSE 9.3 "xkb" directory and it then work.
As i was trying to config the second computer, i notice that the file "ca_enhanced" was missing from the original SuSE 10.0 "etc/X11/xkb/symbols" directory and in the file "etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst" the line "ca_enhanced French Canadian" is also missing.
I also think that the "ca_enhanced(Sundeadkeys)" file is missing but i did not find it anywhere in the SuSE 9.3 xkb directory.
Here is the file "etc/X11/xkb/symbols/ca_enhanced" if that can help somebody.
