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 wit= h kbmap(1), and set it to de or whatever, although i don't have a 9 mac= hine with me right now so can't tell for sure.

if the default map doesn't work, read it, as= k 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.

Ahoy,

I've been trying to give 9front a test ride for a while now, and I'= m
stuck with one specific problem.

So I have a German keyboard layout where <, > and | are on the same key. However, while I have no problems with these keys, in 9front the
key seems to be dead on all of my keyboards. I tried quite a lot of
them, both inside QEMU on two different computers and on a dedicated
ThinkPad. Also, using the de layout does not fix that.

Is that a known problem or a configuration error?
