I need to setxkbmap everytime I start X

[Kalero]

Hi, I have a problem with the X keyboard mapping. I have the system set up in UTF-8 (except LC_COLLATE) and, at the terminals, my keyboard mapping is correct but, when I start X, I always need to open xterm and write setxkbmap es (Spanish keyboard mapping). I can live with that but I think there should be a solution beyond writing setxkbmap es in ~/.xinitrc. Thanks

There is. Do what wblock@ wrote in the handbook: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/x-config.html#x-config-input-keyboard

Thanks, tobik, it works

I see the "keyboard" driver has changed and if you use it now, the keyboard doesn't properly works. What's the value to set in the Driver setting?

Remove the Driver line, that should make Xorg automatically pick the right driver.
