in my control panel (wint nt 4.0 sp3) , the keyboard is a PC/AT 102 and the
regional setting is french-standard for layout .... However when using the
XWin server , I come back to the standard qwerty US keyboard, so it looks like
my NT setting isn't passed to the X server ... is there a way to debug that ???
thanks,
Patrick
