I am running Cygwin/X 1.17 in Windows 7 in Parallels 10.2 in OS X 10.10, and do
not automatically get the right keyboard mapping. I get this in
/var/log/xwin/XWin.0.log:
[ 1448.048] (--) Windows keyboard layout: "A000041D" (a000041d) "Swedish (Apple) -

[ 1448.048] (EE) Keyboardlayout "Swedish (Apple) - Parallels" (A000041D) is
unknown, using X server default layout
The layout should be standard Swedish keyboard.
Thanks for reporting this.
I don't know if this layout identifier is only used by Parallels, or if
you could also get it reported when using the BootCamp drivers with Windows?
I've added some code which should hopefully handle Apple keyboards for
all known layouts.
I'm not 100% sure I've got this right, and I don't have any real way to
test this, so I've built a snapshot [1], and I'd be obliged if you could
test this.
I'm also not sure if using the standard pc105 layout is correct.
xkeyboard-config has specialized macintosh and macbook79 layouts, which
seem to differ in the location of the 3rd-level shift key (what would be
AltGr on a PC keyboard), so I'm not sure which of those to use. Can you
verify that is also working as expected?
