Hello,
I have a US keyboard but the french one is loaded instead the US. I tape
"a" I have a "q" and so on. I have used the following command, as root:
#wsconsctl -w keyboard.encoding=us
I am not familiar with the -w option for wsconsctl. What does it do?
but the keyboard remains a fr one.
Could you please help me with this issue? Could you also tell me what
have I to change in order to have always the us keyboard (after a
reboot, for example).
Thank you for your help.
Sorry for this simple question, but I am a newbie with this OS.
See also the kbd(8) command. In 3.9 at least, there is a kbd-related
section in /etc/rc:
if [ -f /sbin/kbd -a -f /etc/kbdtype ]; then
kbd `cat /etc/kbdtype`
This allows you to make the keyboard be changed anytime the system comes
up in multiuser mode (specifically, when rc is run), with the following
as root:
# echo "us" >/etc/kbdtype
