Bug 85592

Transferring to kbd.  Once we have a console keymap available, I'll add an entry
for Canadian Normalized keyboards to our keyboard list in rhpl.

Should I email the keyboard map which I am using?  To whom?

Please attach the map to this bug. Also, is this map just for Quebec or
French-Canadian? Is there another map for Canadian English? Is it different from
the Canadian keyboard we currently have?

The standard english keyboards in canada are the same as the standard english american 
keyboards, and the canadian hybrids are the same as the american international AFAIK.  The 
keyboard in question is the official keyboard in canada (though only the default in qubec/new-
brunswick and federal government offices, english uses are still given us keyboards).  In qubec 
the old style keyboard (which is the map you currently offer) is still sold, though less and less, with 
this new standardized version becoming more and more popular.  Most computers sold in the past 
4 years have this new style.  One quick way to identify it (could be usefull durring the install) is 
that the old style has the slash on SHIFT+3 and on the new style the slash is accessed by simply 
hitting the key on the left of the 1 (I think it's the ` key on the us keyboard).  In XFree86 you 
simply need to use the "ca" map, and possible swap the RALT & RCTL depending on the keyboard, 
sometimes they have them backwards for some reason. RALT+/ should give a | for example, if it 
gives the funny top right angle border symbol, RALT & RCTL need to be flipped.  On the console, 
the cn-latin1.map file I've attached should do the trick.  OK- Well, I'm unable to attach the file, 
after login in and telling it to attach the file, it wants me to login again, and this keeps on going, 
I'll try from another browser after this, otherwise I'll just email it to you.
