xkeyboard-config

Yesterday I started keyboard
model compatibility page
on fd.o. The idea is to have a
list of (all) real models compatible with existing
xkeyboard-config models. People who use (in X configuration)
a model different from the real keyboard name – I kindly ask
you to update that table (only if all keys on your keyboard
work as expected). Please keep the alphabetic order whenever
possible.

Also, from this table it is easy to see that most of the
keyboards do not have geometry descriptions (I know, it is
just a decorative thing but still …). Contributions are
mostly welcome, as always. I realize, creating geometry
description is not a picnic (and I cannot recommend any
tools) – but some people still manage it.

Thanks.

Just in case someone missed it, yesterday I published the text
explaining various libraries involved in the keyboard
handling in X and GNOME.
