Can't used French Keyboard


HI,

I'm using Cygwin/X installed by setup.exe from Cygwin and I have no other
product.

I can't initialized 'French Keyboard' in XWin.

When I start cygwin (C:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat) all it's OK and I have 'French
Keyboard' (azerty).
When I start XWin (C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\startxwin.bat) I have 'English
Keyboard' (qwerty).

In file XWin.log lines for keyboard are:
(--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: "0000040C" (0000040c)
(--) Using preset keyboard for "French (Standard)" (40c), type "4"
(EE) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

It seems that the good keyboard is detected but can't be installed.

If I try using setxkbmap I have the message:
Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property Use defaults: rules - 'xorg'
model - 'pc101' layout - 'us'
Hangup

If I try using
xkbcomp -w 3 -xkm -m fr /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 localhost:0.0 I have the
message:
Can't find file "xfree86" for keycodes include Exiting Abandoning keycodes
file "fr"

Can you help me?
Thanks

Pierre
