Hi everybody.
I searched the forum already - to no avail...
Just updated my Hermes to WM6 Black Edition. Problem is, that I have a German Device, and now all my keys on my hardware keyboard are set to english localization.
Is there a way to switch to a german keyboard mapping in some way?
Maybe by updating the registry?
Help would be highly appreciated...

thx in advance,

Have a look at this thread:

I never tried it because its not that important for me to have a german keyboard configuration.
Keep us informed how it works :)

thanks for the link!
it seems to work in most of the cases - except the umlauts like 'ä ö ü' can't be accessed via the keyboard shortcut for some strange reason.
apart from that it works quite well...

you have to replace yout sym.0409.txt in windows-dir... search for "sym.04.09.txt" you will find the replacement in the same thread where you find the "German Language Changer"
