i have a qwertz but i use it with the us layout (any other layout sucks for
programming). i think you can change the layout with kbmap(1), and set it
to de or whatever, although i don't have a 9 machine with me right now so
can't tell for sure.

if the default map doesn't work, read it, ask on #cat-v@freenode and write
a new, fixed kbmap you can fling into kbdfs(8).

you should also ask this in the 9front ml.


good luck.
