Hi all,
As a French user of darwin, I would like to "play" with a French
Keyboard.
Since I come from Unix world (mostly from FreeBSD), I've tried fisrt to
search some ioctl to configure the console driver to map the keyboard.
I've allready post on this subject in the darwin-x86 list.
While waiting some answers, I continue to search in the Kernel Source
of darwin.
First, I think no ioctl exist on darwin to set key mapping. Second, I
think all the job is done inside the keyboard driver (in my case
ApplePS2Keyboard) witch is a subset of AppleADBKeyboard. (ADB for
AppleDeviceBundle ?).
Inside AppleADBKeyboard, I've found that the driver load a default US
keymap witch is superset by some info in the Info.plist. am I right ?
So to get a French Keyboard, I understood that I have to had a French
keymap in the Info.plist of AppleADBKeyboard. Does it is the right way ?
Remember, that for now I'm not interest about X11 or Graphics Keyboard
mapping. I only want "text console" mapping.
THX for your help.
Best Regards
Thierry DELHAISE (befree_fr)
