Hi all, Qubes noob here. I have successfully installed Qubes 4.0.4, but I’ve ran into an issue I don’t know how to solve. My native language is Portuguese, and it uses fairly often the letter ç (cedilha). Normally to get this letter on Windows, with an English US International keyboard layout, all I…

Probably not a solution you want, but did you try to choose the layout you want during the installation?

Hi @fsflover , thanks for the reply. To be quite sincere I don’t remember which keyboard layout I picked at installation. It was likely some version of English US international as I was already aware of this issue on Linux. I tried cycling through several of the possible layouts to see if any of the…

Related: Cannot Change VM Keyboard Layout in 4.1 I can confirm a keyboard layout change not affecting keyboard layout inside qubes. With Qubes 4.0 (If remembered correctly), I just set setxkbmap -layout "us,nl, ...more..." -option "grp:win_space_toggle" ... as startup script. The keyboard layou…

Hi @anybody-01 , I tried (on dom0) setxkbmap -layout “us-intl” -option “grp:win_space_toggle” and the output was Error loading new keyboard description. I had the same result with other English US international keyboard layouts. The only one which did not output the error message, it did not output …

I’ve tried a fresh install of Qubes, setting the keyboard layout to “English US international with dead keys” during installation. This propagated the change to all appVMs, but the c-cedilha issue remains. I attempted to make the changes from the guide on dom0 and restarting the laptop to see if th…

just installed 4.1 and updated dom0 and all templates. I set up a second layout (German with no dead keys) in System Tools → Keyboard → Layout using “Left Alt (while pressed)” for changing the layout option and “Right Alt” as compose key. When I try to change the keyboard layout via Qubes Manager,…

Unfortunately, no. I ended up just applying the guide I linked in my original post to each and every appVM. It was tedious to setup, but it works for me. I did not manage to figure out how to “broadcast” the change across all templates/appVMs. If you do figure out a way, please post it here. I would…

Obviously, beside the fact that I don’t know anything about beautiful Portuguese language, I don’t understand what the problem might be here but I just added keyboard layout - Portuguese (no dead keys) in dom0 and here is me typing in AppVM - Çç as SHIFT+; and ; respectively, on a standard QWERTY En…
