Login to a normal text terminal as root, after pressing CTRL-ALT-F2.
Now enter the following commands:
- Code: Select all
mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf
Enter the following lines in the 10-keyboard.conf:
- Code: Select all
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
Please modify the Layout and Variant to match your keyboard.
You can also setup a touchpad the same way:
- Code: Select all
nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-touchpad.conf
Enter the following lines in the 10-touchpad.conf:
- Code: Select all
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "2"
Option "TapButton3" "3"
Option "VertEdgeScroll" "on"
Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "on"
EndSection
Those few lines will enable your touchpad in most of all cases.
After those changes, please do a reboot to enable the changes (or restart your GDM/KDM/LXDM).
Have fun,
Karl
