Icelandic keyboard [8]
Icelandic keyboard

Hi,
I am evaluating Xmanager and like it but run into problems with the
keyboard. I used the Norwegian keyboard layout to construct an Icelandic keyboard definition.
Some keys produce nothing although I have configured them
to produce hyphen, underscore, questionmark and
apostrofe according to the Icelandic keyboard layout.
These keys intermiTtently work correctly when I turn on Caps Lock
us101 EXPL displ defined
-------------------------------------
= - hyphen
+ sh-= _ underscore
] ? question
sh-] ' apostrophe
The / key (scancode 0x35) gives wrong symbols
(¿and ¿in stead of ¿ and ¿):
us101 EXPL displ defined
--------------------------------------
/ ¿¿ thorn
? sh-/ ¿¿ THORN
[ ¿¿eth
sh-] ¿¿ETH
- ¿ ¿odiaeresis
_ ¿¿ODIAERESIS
The composition with acute accent only produces
one wowel with the acute and then in the wrong place (¿)
¿compose-aeiouy ¿¿¿
¿compose-AEIOUY ¿¿¿
Correct
¿compose-aeiouy ¿¿¿
¿compose-AEIOUY ¿¿¿
These keys work correctly
us101 EXPL displ defined
------------------------------------
Mod2 | | bar
Mod2 2 @ @ at
Mod2 - backslash
Finally the numeric keyboard produces letters for the two
builtin keyboard layouts that I tried : us101, Norwegian.
Best Regards,
Morten

Re: Icelandic keyboard : attached the modified file

Thanks Support-people.
The new Keyboard file works much better, that is I can now use
dash, undescore, apostrophe and questionmark.
That was the most important part. Also the numeric keypad
works :-)
The Icelandic letters are still wrong, though.
I just posted a clarification of my previous letter, but then
for some reason your previous reply did not appear in my browser before I sent my second request. Sorry.
But back to the Icelandic letters, like THORN (¿ and
ETH (¿, and more commonly used ones like ¿¿aacute,eacute),
can you produce them at your site ? (These are all in iso-8859-1, which I guess is also called Latin1)
When I try for instance the German keyboard definition
it doesn¿ seem to work correctly. I seem to get
US-ASCII characters in the correct places, but as an example I
get THORN (¿ instead of ssharp (¿ on the us101 key for dash - scancode 0xC.
The shifted key produces the questionmark as it should.
Thanks for your help so far.

I produced Icenlandic characters using the keyboard definition file uploaded above. I'm using US101 compatible keyboard but it will also work for UK102 compatible keyboards.
Please see attached file for the example.

Command 'Xserver' starts the X server on console.
If you are trying to run CDE from the remote location, you should start a dtterm first, and then use the following command instead.
$ /usr/dt/bin/Xsession &
Hope this helps.

Mappings for Icelandic keyboard that did not work
I iterate my question, this time using HTML pre in trying to beautify my tables :-)
Some of these problems appear to be present in the predefined nordic keyboards. (Norwegian, Swedish)I used the Norwegian keyboard as the base for defining the Icelandic keyboard.
Should I rather try to use the us101 keyboard as myinitial file when making a new keyboard definition ?
