keyboard


Hy *,
I'm using Fedora Core 4. Yust installed it
One problem with keyboard is quite a nag that I can't manage to work out...
I'm using Croation layout (/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwertz/croat.map.gz - I think) but one key is assigned wrong. Assingnment was done with "gnome-keyboard-properties".

On Croatian layout, first key left form "Right Shift" key should be "minus underscore" but it is "slash ?" - like on USA keyboard. I'd like it to be "minus underscore".

Not shure, but I think that keycode 53 has something to do with this...

[kfranic@localhost tmp]# gzip -d -c /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwertz/croat.map.gz | grep " 53"
keycode 53 = minus underscore slash
control keycode 53 = Delete
alt keycode 53 = Meta_minus
shift control keycode 53 = Control_underscore

[kfranic@localhost tmp]# dumpkeys | grep " 53"
keycode 53 = minus underscore slash Delete Control_underscore
alt keycode 53 = Meta_minus

I'm lost...

Does anyone knows what has to be changed in to redefine this assignment?

Thanks in advance!!

[EDIT]
I'm not placing this post in FC4 problems thread, as i think this is a coomon problem. Had it with Suse also...

This was a fedora bug a while ago
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla....cgi?id=126243

just add the following line

key <AB10> { [ minus, underscore, dead_belowdot, dead_abovedot ] };

to the /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/hr
