Been looking around these forums a bit and found that I need to add a line to my ~/.xiwirc file to keep a persistent keyboard while using xiwi if I'm using something that isn't the US layout (I'm wanting the UK layout, Not much difference, but enough to be annoying when I'm needing quotation marks on a regular basis). I've had a dig around my filesystem and I can't seem to find this .xiwirc file anywhere. Should it just be in my home folder?\r\n\r\nCould anyone give me a template as to what should be in this file by default? I might just have to create one, since I don't really run much in xiwi beyond my IDE.\r\n\r\nCheers :)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/dnschneid/crouton/issues/comments/193367083","html_url":"https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/issues/2477#issuecomment-193367083","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/dnschneid/crouton/issues/2477","id":193367083,"user":{"login":"DennisLfromGA","id":3418772,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3418772?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA","html_url":"https://github.com/DennisLfromGA","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/DennisLfromGA/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-03-07T17:48:16Z","updated_at":"2016-03-07T17:48:16Z","body":"@DavidA122,\r\n\r\nI don't think there is a `.xiwirc` 'template' as such, it's just whatever you want to run in a xiwi environment.\r\nYou can create the `.xiwirc` file with the commands you need and place it in your chroot's $HOME directory (`~/.xiwirc`)\r\nYou may be able to use `setxkbmap...` or something, similar to what they did in this reddit [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/3ezd56/setting_keyboard_layout_for_xiwi/cub3oqr).\r\nAlso, see this crouton issue https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton/issues/1828 for other ideas.\r\n\r\n-**DennisL**"}}
