You can do this by creating a per-server keyboard configuration file. These files are
placed in the root of the XKB tree (Section 12.2) and are named d-config.keyboard,
where d is the display number??”so the configuration file for display :0 would be /etc/
X11/xkb/X0-config.keyboard or /usr/share/X11/xkb/X0-config.keyboard.
This file contains name and value pairs, one per line, delimited by equal signs. The
names may be component names or parameter names. For example:
rules = xorg
model = pc105
layout = us
variant = intl
Each keyboard configuration file may also specify how AccessX controls work as well
as explain that some parameters are usually adjusted using xset (Section 6.4), such as
the bell pitch and volume and the keyboard repeat rate, but these are rarely used.
Many of XKBs features are poorly documented, but the keyboard configuration
file is probably the worst??”it is really documented only in
the XKB source code. Ivan Pascal has made some notes about this feature
at http://pascal.tsu.ru/en/xkb/config.html.
12.9 Compiling Keyboard Maps
XKB keyboard maps are compiled before use. Generally, the X server calls the
xkbcomp program to compile the map based on information that either is in the
12.
