First, thanks for making SDL available.
I get a keyboard error when using a remote connection (VNC) to log in to my
Raspberry Pi. This isn’t a big problem, but it worked on SDL1.x. A Google
search shows a couple reports of this problem, one in the SDL forum, but no
responses. I am reporting this mostly because the error message asked for a
report, but it is handy to have the remote connection for development work.
This error occurs during init (no text follows the colon):
Keyboard layout unknown, please send the following to the SDL mailing list
(sdl at libsdl.org):
These errors are reported when a key is pressed (these examples are “a b
c”).

Did you set a keyboard layout on your pi? I haven’t used wheezy, but for
arch on pi, I had to set the keyboard mapping. Even though this page is
for arch, you may find it helpful for wheezy, too;

Does that resolve the issue?On Sun, Jan 19, 2014 at 7:57 PM, Kerry Imming wrote:

Hi Alex,
Thank you for the reply. There is a raspi-config that sets the keyboard mapping. I have tried several mappings, but all with the same error. Everything else in VNC works correctly. I tried a different VNC viewer and got the same errors. The link you provided talks about a /etc/vconsole.config, but I don’t find any references to that on my distro.
This isn’t a huge problem, and if it hadn’t worked with SDL 1.0 I would have chalked it up to Raspberry Pi weirdness.
Thanks again for your time,
