For some time, I can not configure gdm in French (or other). After more researches, I found the solution which consists in modifying / etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default: Solution: Create an autodetection routine : Since no problem, it works ! I propose a revision 2 of the ebuild including the patch. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -av gnome-base/gdm 2.Verify if keyboard is configured like /etc/conf.d/keymaps 3.It works ! Actual Results: GDM is correctly configured in French. Like /etc/conf.d/keymaps Expected Results: With gdm-2.20.11-setxkbmap.patch, the routine configure automatically keymap.. dbox2 files # emerge --info gdm Portage 2.1.10.44 (default/linux/amd64/10.0, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.12.2, 3.0.6-gentoo x86_64) ================================================================= System Settings ================================================================= System uname: Linux-3.0.6-gentoo-x86_64-Intel-R-_Celeron-R-_CPU_3.20GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.3 Timestamp of tree: Sat, 10 Mar 2012 23:45:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.1_p9 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11-r3 dev-lang/python: 2.7.1-r1, 3.1.4-r3 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.4-r1 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.26 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.3 sys-apps/openrc: 0.9.8.4 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.68 sys-devel/automake: 1.9.6-r3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.21.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.5.3-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.4-r1 sys-devel/make: 3.82-r1 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 2.6.39 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.12.2 Repositories: gentoo x-portage ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* skype-eula" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/config /usr/share/gnupg/qualified.txt" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/dconf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--autounmask=n" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" FFLAGS="" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.gentoo.org http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="fr" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl alsa amd64 berkdb bzip2 cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups cxx dbus dri dts dvb dvd dvdr fortran fuse gdbm gif gnome gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk iconv ipv6 jpeg mmx modules mudflap multilib ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pcre png pppd pulseaudio readline samba session spell sse sse2 ssl sysfs tcpd tiff unicode xinerama xorg zlib" ALSA_CARDS="via82xx" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache cgi cgid dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CALLIGRA_FEATURES="kexi words flow plan stage tables krita karbon braindump" CAMERAS="ptp2" COLLECTD_PLUGINS="df interface irq load memory rrdtool swap syslog" DVB_CARDS="usb-dib0700 b2c2-flexcop-pci" ELIBC="glibc" GPSD_PROTOCOLS="ashtech aivdm earthmate evermore fv18 garmin garmintxt gpsclock itrax mtk3301 nmea ntrip navcom oceanserver oldstyle oncore rtcm104v2 rtcm104v3 sirf superstar2 timing tsip tripmate tnt ubx" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="fr" LIRC_DEVICES="imon" PHP_TARGETS="php5-3" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS ================================================================= Package Settings ================================================================= gnome-base/gdm-2.20.11-r2 was built with the following: USE="branding consolekit ipv6 (multilib) pam tcpd xinerama -accessibility -afs -dmx -gnome-keyring -remote (-selinux)"

Created attachment 304879 [details, diff] gdm-2.20.11-setxkbmap.patch
Created attachment 304881 [details] gdm-2.20.11-r2.ebuild New revision including new patch.
/etc/conf.d/keymaps configures keyboard maps for the Linux text console. These keymaps have nothing to do with gdm or any other graphical application. Systemwide X11 keyboard maps should be set in a file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ Please see the http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml ("configuring your keyboard" section).
GDM works fine with /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/30-keyboard.conf ! I should read english documentation ...hmm Sorry for the noise ! Best regards, jay
