I added following configuration to my /etc/default/keyboard

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="gb,de"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS="grp:win_space_toggle"

BACKSPACE="guess"

however. This does not load at boot.

My configuration

Debian 10.3

i3, xdm

ThinkPad E580

The /var/log/Xorg.log is

I also tried adding the setting using localectl, but this didn't yield any results either.

Best,
Felix
