Hi All !
I have been trying to make my TTY work with accented characters. So far, I have loaded a keymap that is essentialy us.map modified with dead_letters where the accents are supposed to be. (I have compared to pt.map -> portuguese map and things look more or less the same, though my keyboard layout is the usual international one, and so, may accents are generated a bit different) I have also loaded a mapscrn trivial, lat16u.psf fonts, sent the escape character "\\033(k" (or similar... :) ) to the TTY's on startup and nothing happened up to now :( Any help is welcome ! ----> Begin here <----- #! /bin/sh # # boot boot-time system configuration. # # Version: @(#)boot 2.10 26-Apr-1997 [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # Copyright (C) 1994-1997 Debian Association, Inc. # Written by Ian Murdock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # and Miquel van Smoorenburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # # # This script desperately needs to parse a config file # (like /etc/default/boot) instead of having to edit it directly! # [...] # # Set pseudo-terminal access permissions. # chmod 666 /dev/tty[p-za-e][0-9a-f] chown root.tty /dev/tty[p-za-e][0-9a-f] # # Set pseudo-terminal access permissions and some # video settings. # # Danish-HOWTO -> echo -ne '\033(K' # INITTY=/dev/tty[1-6] /usr/bin/setfont /usr/lib/kbd/consolefonts/lat1u-16.psf mapscrn /usr/lib/kbd/consoletrans/trivial for tty in $INITTY do echo -ne '\033(K' > $tty # echo -n -e '\\033(K' > $tty done /usr/bin/setvesablank on # # Load the keymaps *as soon as possible* # if [ -r /etc/kbd/default.map ] then loadkeys /etc/kbd/default.map fi -----> End Here <------ Daniel. ________________________________________________________________ Daniel Doro Ferrante email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network & System Manager http://www.cecm.usp.br/~danieldf CECM - Curso de Ciencias Moleculares - USP Course of Molecular Sciences - University of Sao Paulo -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
