Hi all,

when I try to use Xnest with setxkbmap to force a Germany keyboard layout, I get the error

Error loading new keyboard description

The complete command I am using is

ssh -X -C -l $USER $HOST -n "Xnest :1 -ac -geometry 1440x850 -once -query localhost & setxkbmap -layout de"

I also tried with "setxkbmap de" in the end, but no difference.

So this might have been the right syntax to set a different keyboard layout, but somehow it did not work - do I understand the error message right? There is no error or hint in the Xorg log file(s).

Any hint or help is appreciated.

Dirk
