I have found a solution. At the end of the console boot script the dead keys are disabled due a kernel bug. At least in the previous version of lfs-bootscrips. I dont have tried the current version 20081023. Well, if I add BROKEN_CONSOLE=false in /etc/sysconfig/console, the vowels accented work fine. Also i get correctly the euro symbol and the ñ. I havent needed the patch for the kernel. My /etc/sysconfig/console now: # Begin /etc/sysconfig/console UNICODE="1" KEYMAP="es" KEYMAP_CORRECTIONS="euro2" LEGACY_CHARSET="iso-8859-15" BROKEN_COMPOSE=false FONT="lat0-16 -m 8859-15" # End /etc/sysconfig/console -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
