Hello folks,

can you tell me how to type "@" character?

I have MorphOs installed on a Mac Mini with an original italian Apple Keyboard...

and have chosen italian keyboard preference during the installation...

I am going nuts...

Help me :(

Try keymorpher_v1.1 for MorphOS which should show you the key that is currently setup to use that character. Hope that helps

Hi D4Ni3L3!
You can try to solve your problem going here:
Keymap italiana per MorphOS
This italian keymap was made by prof Fulvio Peruggi and cover almost all key combinations on a common pc keyboard and it should work on an Apple keyboard too. This is my idea and I can't test it since I use a pc keyboard but I saw that keys are almost similar.
Download and install it in SYS:Devs/Keymaps and select it from System Settings/Keyboard.
On a pc keyboard key combination is ALT+@key and I've read that it's the same on an Apple keyboard. Try it and let us know =)

Ciao!

Simply use Alt+Q. At least it works here when selecting an italian keyboard.

Same position as on any PC keyboard. There is also the tool KeyShow included (Tools/KeyShow), which allows to find a key very easy.

SHIFT+2 works here

Italian keyboard has different symbols for keys and "@" key is on "ò" key, on the left side of keyboard:

and it's the same for Mac keyboard:

MorphOs has two "strange" things since 1.4: the keyboard layout, not italian layout, and the italia.country file, which starts week day from Sunday instead of Monday.
That's why I use Fulvio Peruggi's file for keyboard and a modified italia.country file for days

Alt+Q works fine on my keyboard. :)

Hello!

I tried Fulvio's Peruggi keyboard and it works fine on my Apple Keyboard. I made some tests with a PC keyboard by TRUST and it works fine too.
I prefer using apple keyboard because I can reset the Mac Mini with the key combination CTRL + APPLE ( on the left side ) + CTRL APPLE ( on the right side ).
I tried the same positioned Keys on the PC keyboard and I cannot reset.

So what can you say to me about key resetting? How do you perform it?

Hello D4Ni3L3,

with the Apple keyboard you con use LEFT CTRL - LEFT APPLE - RIGHT APPLE (no need for RIGHT CTRL), with the PC keyboard connected to the Mac Mini you should use LEFT CTRL - LEFT WINDOWS - RIGHT WINDOWS (at least I hope so: this work on a Pegasos, but is untested on a Mac Mini).

I have a PC (USB) keyboard which won't do the three fingered salute (the right windows key is replaced with a 'menu' key instead), although standard PC keyboards with two 'windows' keys do work in my experience.

Quote:

Three fingers salute reset worked flawlessly for me on Pegasos II with Logitech keyboards sporting 2 Windows keys. (I own Logitech Desktop Wireless Navigator PS2+USB keyboard + Mouse Set, i.e. the first version that features Left and Right Windows keyx. New versions have only Left Windows key.)

With MacMini I currently use USB cable Keyboard from HewlettPackard which has two Windows keys, and also works perfectly with MorphOS 3.8.

[Extra:
I advice you not to buy HewlettPackard keyboards. Mine is awful and often do not recognize key pressing, and mainly "SHIFT" key, so I must continuously edit missing upper case in capital letters.]
