Hi to everyone:
I entered "startx" as a root in the past which caused a new (X Windows?) desktop to start. In this new desktop the keyboard layout corresponds to a US keyboard and not to my preferrred german keyboard. How can I change the settings in such a way that a german keyboard is implemented?
Furthermore: is there anybody who can explain me (as a Raspian beginner) the different desktops and how to switch between these desktops?
Thanks a lot for any help.
Re: Wrong keyboard layout after startx
Check "XKBLAYOUT" in /etc/default/keyboard
You should be able to run dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration if you need to.
Hope that helps !

For anybody as dumb as me, I found out what was wrong. I downloaded a custom .xinitrc to modify my dwm status bar. However there was a line in there lol! It specified -layout gb in there, which is why startx changed the keyboard layout
