Hi
I used to set the layout on my think pad t42 with
setxkbmap gb -variant colemak
and is has worked fine for about a year now. But last week after an update (not sure which packages were updated), my keys are now out of order. Only the bottom row is affected. Before my keys were like this (from left to right):
\zxcvbkm,./ but now they are like this:
zxcvbkm,.\/
I.e. the forward slash is now the rightmost key and before it was the leftmost key. This is disastrous because it means that all keys in the bottom row have moved one position to the left.
Interestingly when I do
setxkbmap us -variant colemak, all the letters are in the right place. Unfortunately this in not a good permanent solution because some of the special symbols are in the wrong place now.
a ~$ uname -a
Linux alittleroisin 2.6.32-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jan 29 08:50:05 UTC 2010 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.70GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
X.Org X Server 1.7.4.901 (1.7.5 RC 1)
Any help appreciated
