Description Klaus Kusche 2002-08-10 11:01:59 UTC 
Thou shalt not silently & unconditionally load windowkeys after loading my
keyboard settings in /etc/init.d/keymaps 8-)

(because my keyboard map assigns nonstandard meanings to the three window keys,
and they get overwritten by your defaults...).

If you really want to include this file unconditionally, do it *before* loading
the user-selected keymap!

Thanks!

Ok, what about changing:

/bin/loadkeys -q ${KEYMAP} windowkeys >/dev/null

to:

/bin/loadkeys -q windowkeys ${KEYMAP} >/dev/null

in /etc/init.d/keymaps ?

That's what I did - works for me.

Great, fixed on CVS.
