there is a de_CH keymap shipped with XFree86 4.x as included in OpenBSD 
3.6. Afaict it has been there since OpenBSD 2.9, and it works for me (at 
least the 'z' is at the right place, I don't remember the standard swiss 
german keyboard layout otherwise).

The cards I have in my running machines at home are not supported by the 
old XFree86 3.3.6, so I can't test if it also works with the old server, 
but in theory XKB configs are compatible with both servers.

I've no idea why it doesn't work for you and the general tone of your 
message(s) doesn't give me any motivation to try to help you debug it. 
Do your homework or go back to the OS you were using before if it made 
you more happy.

Tchuss.
