I'm also rather sure I have read on this list that it's not sw-operated,
but I can't give any technical documentation on that.

No, we'll probaby have two keep different keymaps at least for the
international keyboards to work properly (no, haven't created a mac-de
yet, sorry!).
If such keymaps need to be created anyway, that can be done for Linux

BTW, the Gnome will _never_ work without the X server running, so you'd
really need to get this fixed first. Gnome is rather one of the last things
I would try to get working, actually.
