Description Tupone Alfredo gentoo-dev 2004-12-28 17:28:57 UTC
To make euro key work at console (not X) I had to modify the it.map.gz to include euro.

Comment 5 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 15:58:54 UTC
A part that I don't use italian keymap so I'm not sure what I can do... but can you tell how it's broken at least?
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 16:01:01 UTC
sorry, read the comments in Bug 126197 where two solutions have been proposed
Comment 7 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 16:05:13 UTC
[CCing a few other devs as we don't have a italy@gentoo.org alias :P]

Hmm I think Matteo's idea on bug #126197 should be fine... Stefano, what's the documentation saying about that? (I'm too lazy tonight to look that up myself .. ;) )
Comment 8 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 16:43:19 UTC
using the modifier should be ok, and, well, I'm not using an Italian layout too.
Comment 9 Tupone Alfredo gentoo-dev 2006-03-14 22:48:26 UTC
I'm ok with the EXTENDED_KEYMAPS="euro2" solution, so the it.map patch can be discarded.

I tested on a laptop with it keyboard, I was not able to buy it here with an us keyboard 
Comment 10 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2006-03-15 19:32:14 UTC
ok, patched dropped for kbd-1.12-r6
