How to setup international keyboard in Linux or Unix with Xmodmap. The Xmodmap is a file that XFree86 reads in order to give you a keyboard layout. This solution will work for you in setting up any international keyboard for (Debian, RedHat, Mandrake, CorelLinux) Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and possibly every Unix that uses XFree86 and KDE. This howto is a little experimental in that that it bypasses some standardized XFree86 solutions (with respect to its older versions), although a standard form of internationalization is included too.
