There are German keymaps in the console-tools rpm, for example
/usr/lib/kbd/keymaps/mac/mac-de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap.gz
I guess you would have to compare this with a corresponding German usb
keymap. Don't know where to find one, but I'm sure such keymaps have
been offered on the net.

Looks bad, indeed. Works, however, on the B&W G3 where I tried it :-)
It just means that both USB keycodes 49 and 50 will be mapped to the
same ADB keycode. I don't quite remember (have been away from linux for
a month), but I think only one of the two actually exists on a key.
