Xorg keyboard patch

[Pedro Silva]

Hi!

Hinted by Evdev and new gdm options, I tested gnome based kickstart
files from git without the xorg keyboard patch and it works. I can
sucessfully choose a portuguese keyboard in gdm and after entering in a
gnome session, applications correctly detect my keyboard. Also, gdm is
presented in portuguese language.

I committed these changes to pt_PT kickstart files based on gnome. I
also fixed the template/patch for pt_PT language.

Hopefully, I will have the same results on all pt_PT ks files and the
patch is no longer needed. GDM looks great with those new features. :)

Best regards,

Pedro Silva

Also works for me but GDM still shows an USA keyboard as default in the
login screen, although the actual keyboard layout is set to br-abnt2.

I googled trying to find some option I could put in /etc/gdm.conf but
couldn't find anything.

Anyone, is it possible to define a default keyboard selection, in
keyboard list, when gdm starts in a livecd?
