I have install the 10.4.3 build 8F1099 in french language...
by default I got an french (azerty ) keyboard. but some keys are'nt working as a normal french keyboard...
fo ex: accented keys, or symbol keys (# % & etc ...)
they only work if I install an US keyboard and use it... not pratical ;-)

did someone know why ?

thanks

c'est normal c'est une beta et le clavier sur macos n'est pas le meme qu'un clavier PC.
Il faut télcharger des keyboard layouts ds biblioteque du disk dur
tiens voila le mien :! toutes les touches marche le arobass c la touche carré

You also can install the logitech OSX driver available on their site, the driver by itself won't work since it for PPC but it contains a lot of keyboard layouts for many countries, including France

Hi cyclonefr,

I just downloaded the attached keylayout and copied it into /System/Library/Keyboard Layouts and changed my International Input preferences to use this attached keyboard layout...

Question: how can I type for example the "#" character now? ALTGR+3 doesn't seem to work for me...

Thx for your reply

the ALTGR key is now the WINDOWS key
enjoy
ps in my case i changed the windows key and the ALTGR key on my KEYBOARD with a screwdriver

Thx alot

I have unzip it in /Library/System/Keyboa* but I can't set it as my keyboard !!!!
how do you do that ?

First of all, be sure to copy it to

/System/Library/Keyboard Layouts

or

/Library/Keyboard Layouts

or

/Users/YourNameGoesHere/Library/Keyboard Layouts

After this you LOG OUT and LOG IN again


Then you go to System Preferences - International - Input Menu

New keyboard layout should now be available in the list...

eheh the french keyboard rocks
