Just set Icelandic as primary and German as secondary keyboard layout in the OpenELEC settings add-on.
After reboot it seems to have switched to Icelandic but all the special characters do not work. If I press them nothing happens. It is as if those keys were dead.

I can confirm this for the latest RC1 of Openelec 3.0 -> regardless of the settings - no german keyboard layout.

Is there a fix in the pipeline ?

Thanks, Philipp

They closed the issue but it is still there. Not fixed. I will not install this XBMC release on friends and mine pc before this is fixed. I'm always trying again and now that the issue was closed i hoped again.

I'm fed up that developers are not taking this serious!

They use setxkbmap to set the keymap. However, setx affects only Xorg, and Xorg is not used on the Raspberry Pi. On The RPi, grapic output is drawn directly into the framebuffer, so there is no X at all.
XBMC has an "translation table" for different keyboard layouts. However, these settings doesn't work in any XBMC version.
An option might be to set an binary busybox kernel console keymap (loadkmap)

Is there any progress with this one ? XBMC itself (i.e. XBMC live image) is working fine for me - but since I have been using Openelec - the german keyboard layout does not work !!

When can we expect a fix ? I cannot believe, that this is so hard to fix ...

loadkmap < somebinarykeymap does work fine.
a binary keymap can be created using loadkeys -b on many linux distributions.
de-latin1-nodeadkeys.bkmap for example can be found here: docs.google.com/file/d/0B3Hhz2OnL5c7NGFX...UEE/edit?usp=sharing
