-Just- installed Arch, and having difficulties to understand why my keyboard layout still is en_US, eventhough i had set it to be de_CH. *UTF-8 obviously*
This applies to console AND X.
However, its (the fonts) not been a -manual- installation as from a tarball, but using AUR (pacman).
Arch: Fedora: (this was just taken as reference to be sure i used the same settings, as they work there)
Dont tell me its the quotes, there are no quotes in the wiki.
Any ideas please? (aka; what did i miss?)
Thank you in advance.
NOTE:
I've been trying to install system-config-language, but there is no such package in AUR ( pacman -Q sys) (i used to use that tool on my fedora installation using awesome wm)
Even having LANG=de_CH.UTF-8 awesome & in xinitrc doesnt help to get my keymap loaded
Any ideas / advice please?
