Console or X? Just for X:

*Right*!!-Optio(=ALt)+2 is the us-default for at, an unmodified de 
pc-keymap has @ at "Right-Option-q", at least for an ADB-keyboard, 
USB-keyboards should behave similar.

I fixed the keymap for X according to the HowTo and added some more 
fixes to /etc/X11/xkd/keycodes/xfree86 and
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/de, but I am still not quite satisfied. I will try 
to refine  it.

I have just discovered a keymap "de" for X in 
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/macintosh/de made by SUSE. Haven't it tested yet.

It includes a comment saying it comes close to a German-Macos-keymap. Sounds
promising.


Hope that helps,

Markus
