Dear LFS support, how does it work the script /etc/rc.d/init.d/console in lfs-bootscript? how does the variable $KEYMAP pass the argument to loadkeys?
My LFS is LFS stable 7.5 I am working without X, only in console. My $LANG is ISO885915@euro I can see $LANG ISO885915@euro when I type set and locale I have tried several combinations in my /etc/sysconfig/console: UNICODE=1 KEYMAP=es KEYMAP_CORRECTIONS="euro2" FONT="lat0-16 -m 8859-15" I can see the ñ, ¡, ? and the € in my console, I cannot see accented spanish character, á, é, í, ó, ú. the LFS-bootschript included the /etc/rc.d/init.d/console, which installed the following: /etc/sysconfig/console? I compiled Linux-3.13.3 against the following: make LANG=ISO885915@euro LC_ALL= menuconfig I am in a Netbook Lenovo s2-10. If I understand correctly the hierchy of the information is The master run-level control script runs all the other bootscripts in a sequence gathering information first from locale (taken from glibc) and variable $LANG, then look in /etc/sysconfig/console and later look for loadkeys loading a different keymap is that correct "The dead key settings depend on your locale and character set." (http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/7493/why-is-the-us-international-keyboard-layout-on-debian-different) then, why if I compiled against ISO885915@euro, my console is not letting me see spanish accented characters? My question is about understanding LFS and if possible Linux. I can see the spanish accented characters using loadkeys /usr/share/keymaps/es.map.gz and in vim I can use :set enc=utf-8 and using CTR+K a+`(accent) = á and so on. but, why if I compiled against ISO885915@euro, my console is not letting me see spanish accented characters? Let me see i you need more output to help me solve my problem. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
