I actually meant that the keyboard setting are no longer specified in
it, rather than the name change. I now see that the options are still
available - perhaps I was confused by the man page, which doesn't
mention them explicitly.

It's just that I have a UK keyboard, so the US default meant all the
special chars were wrong.

Wonderful! "setxkbmap gb" did exactly what I wanted :)
Now, is there a "correct" place to put this command (for system-wide
use), rather than in my .profile?
Thanks again.
cheers,
