Kernel Compilation and Keyboard

2003-02-16 Thread Kevin Smith
Hi All,

I'm running Debian Woody 3.0r1 on a powerpc (AppleMac G3 beige) and have
used the precompiled Kernels in the past.

I decided to compile a Kernel from source (2.4.20) and everything works
perfect apart from the keyboard, where the mapping is completely
wrong... in fact, every key is different.  What do I need to do in order
for the keyboard mapping to be correct for my location? (UK).

BTW, this is before I boot into X, this is at the console that the
keyboard mapping is wrong.

Thanks,

Kevin

install-keymap foo, where foo is a valid keymap, will set the default
keymap on the console to foo.  loadkeys foo will change the currently
used keymap to foo, but will not change the default.  Keymaps are found
in /usr/share/keymaps, try with loadkeys the layouts that look like they
may be the one you want (perhaps mac-uk).
