If you are using the GNOME Desktop for the Solaris™ 8 operating
environment or the Solaris 9 operating environment, you must enable XKB on
your system before you can use the AccessX
preference
tool.
XKB is not currently supported on Sun Ray™ systems.
To enable XKB on a non-Sun Ray Solaris system, perform the following steps:
Log in as root.
Check if the path and file /etc/dt/config/Xservers exists on your system.
If the /etc/dt/config directory does not exist, enter the following command:
mkdir -p /etc/dt/config |
If the Xservers file is not present, enter the following command:
cp /usr/dt/config/Xservers /etc/dt/config/Xservers |
Open the Xservers file in a text editor and scroll to the end of the file.
Append the following to the command line at the end of the file:
+kb |
Save and close the file.
Enter the following command at a command line:
pkill -HUP dtlogin |
Log out of your GNOME session and log in again.
To verify if XKB is running, enter xdpyinfo and search for XKEYBOARD in the extensions list.
