If i use the mac-be keymap, my keys are completely screwed :p
the space is a shiftkey, my a key is assinged to y etc...

I will try to write a g4-special keymap for this

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.edit rc.conf
2.set keymap to mac-be
3.restart /etc/init.d/keymaps

Actual Results:  
my keys were all mixed none mapped to the right one

Expected Results:  
map the right keys to the right characters

just a base install of 1.4 livecd

I will try to write it myself if i'm allowed


greetings
