How can I change from qwerty keyboard to azerty ?
Hello everybody ! I have a tricky problem here : my keyboard is azerty working on windows (i recently changed it from an old qwerty). The problem is, when i go to my job's server to work and open IDL in linux (my linux terminal is in azerty too) I have a problem writing in IDL because this one consider I have a qwerty keyboard. I guess it's not really related with IDL himself because if I use another computer I will have my azerty just fine. Does someone who already experienced this have an idea ? Thanks a lot, have a nice day Sylvain

Are you using something like VNC or NX to connect to a full desktop session on the server? If yes, then your windows keyboard is forwarded "raw" to the linux session. Use that session's settings tool to choose an azerty keyboard, like you would on a local machine. Or are you logging in with ssh/putty (you said "terminal")? I would not expect that the linux side knows about your keyboard then, it should just get the letters you type, no matter which key needed to be pressed to get it. Does any of this makes sense to you? chl
