>Description:
I am using the multiplexer with a PS2 and USB Keyboard (MS Natural Keyboard Elite). After connecting the keyboard to the usb-port, it is recognized, but it is initialized with US-Layout, but the kernel is configured for GERMAN-Keymap.
The PS2 Keyboard works as an normal GERMAN-layout keyboard. The "#"-key(in German Layout) works on the USB-Keyboard like in the german layout, but under X (I run XFree86 4.0.1) doesn't work like there is no function for it.
The PS2 Keyboard is an old Cherry G80-1000 HAD (german layout/DIN with PS2-adapter).
>How-To-Repeat:
just putting the keyboard in :-)
>Fix:
nothing figured out yet
