Swedish keyboard


I'm using the Swedish keyboard layout but cannot manage to make tags like these < >, are they not mapped for the Swedish keyboard?

Hi!

Could you please post you /etc/X11/xorg.conf?. Basically, you've to add a few lines under Section "Input Device" in order to get Swedish keyboard layout. Here is a little example:

Code:
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"Generic Keyboard"
	Driver		"keyboard"
	Option		"CoreKeyboard"
	Option		"XkbRules"	"xorg"
	Option		"XkbModel"	"pc105"
	Option		"XkbLayout"	"se"
EndSection
Just make sure to have "pc105" and "se" and you should be fine.

jag hoppas att du lyckas!

Hello and thanks for the quick reply. I haven't been able to figure out how to do it yet, but here's my xorg.conf. It's a bit untidy but I've basically just modified the last couple of lines.


Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "sv_SE"
EndSection

Here's the solution

xmodmap -e 'keycode 94 = less greater bar'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 65 = space bar'

The pipe can now be achieved with shift + space bar.

Skulle Option "XkbLayout" "sv_SE" ikke være Option "XkbLayout" "se"? På dansk er det bare "dk".
