Hi,

I have a Vista Prenium edition with cygwin. By default in XWin, the 
keyboard in configured for US mode whereas I have a french keyboard. 
I've tried all the solutions given in the FAQ 
(http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-non-U.S.-keyboard-layout) 
but it fails.
The last stuff I've tried is to execute the following command line :

xkbcomp -w 3 -xkm -m /de/ /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 localhost:0.0


which fails and returns :

cannot open "xkm" for reading

Could anyone help please?

Thanks,

Mayeul Rousselet
