I habe a latitude 5400, and my entry is see below: -------------------- # If you change any of the following variables and HAL and X are # configured to use this file, then the changes will become visible to # X only if HAL is restarted. In Debian you need to run # /etc/init.d/hal restart # The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same # values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options # in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. XKBMODEL="latitude" XKBLAYOUT="de" XKBVARIANT="nodeadkeys" XKBOPTIONS="compose:lwin,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" # If you don't want to use the XKB layout on the console, you can # specify an alternative keymap. Make sure it will be accessible # before /usr is mounted. # KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz BACKSPACE="guess" -------------------- Hope this helps. Best Hans
