It seems XFree86 does not get full the "keymap table" from kernel (or where=
=20
does it come from ;-) )

I define keymap=3Dswedish.iso in sysconfig and the font8x16=3Diso8x16 ...

Everything is OK on the (ascii) console, but in XFree the national keys =E5=
=E4=F6
do not display correctly. I have to run xmodmap with definition

keycode 34 =3D aring Aring
keycode 48 =3D adiaeresis Adiaeresis
keycode 47 =3D odiaeresis Odiaeresis

I am running FB86312 and FreeBSD 2.2-SNAP-960501

PS. This is not problem if I run X local (startx for example) but we use=20
    xdm and I know no way to define keycodes if I start X with

    X -indirect xdm-server.name
