Hello every one i've install solus and I love it so mutch but i've some trouble with the french keyboard on mate but not on budgie ii've no english language install but my keyboard is always in english I need to make setxkbmap fr for switch to french. How can I solved my problem

    Did you try changing it in Keyboard Preferences? Either open it from menus, or by typing mate-keyboard-properties in a terminal window. This worked for me with a Norwegian keyboard in MATE.

    Every thing is in french, file config i've found on github but I don't remmember were is it but is in french only one language package is french but when I started my computeur my keyboard is in english...

    when I started locale i'v ethis anwser
    LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
    LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"

    LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
    LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"

      Antoine try this

      localectl set-locale LANG="fr_FR.utf8"

      Antoine I had this problem with Manjaro. My keyboard was always in us layout when I typed the passphrase. I didn't find how to change the layout at that moment. So my small advice for all Western people (latin language) on Linux is:

      • Buy a US keyboard
      • Use this keyboard layout -> English (US, intl., with dead keys)

      You can type in French, Spanish, Italian, German, etc... The shortcuts on this picture are wrong (I often have to replace CTRL by Alt Gr).

      Antoine
      run this command

      localectl status
      the last line of the result X11 Model take that value then replace with #####
      sudo localectl set-x11-keymap it #####

      Example : this is my X11 Model (please dont use this...This is for example)
      sudo localectl set-x11-keymap it pc104
