If you don't want the features of XKB, run the server with -xkb or add XkbDisable to your XF86Config. Really, how tough is it to edit your XF86Config file? Yeah, it'd be nice if you didn't have to do it two places, but it doesn't take a PhD to do it either, so kwicherbitchen and edit your XF86Config file to make XKB load the keymap you want. If you want XKB in XFree86 to automatically work better on FreeBSD then I need some better support at the OS level. -- Kaleb "Grumpy" KEITHLEY
