Dear Sirs. It is one stream of struggle ... I already set up a bunch of FreeBSD clients around here and they are mainly equipted with German keyboards. In kernel I configure the SC console on those machines which need to be equipted with German keyboards and those which are equipted with ASCII keyboards I prefer PCVT console driver. Well, I will talk about the SC console driven machines. When switching to console, I got my German keyboard, but in X11 in xterm I do not have any German character I need! Why? I configured in XFree the right keyboard but this won't work correct because I do not have "a, "o, "u and the other characters. I have had these problems under XFree 4 also and especially in conjunction with FreeBSD. TERM is set to xterm-color ... are there other environment variables which are involved? Thanks in advance, Oliver - MfG O.
