Hello list!
I just installed OpenBSD 4.5 on my old laptop, which went very smooth.
However, despite of selecting de.nodead as kbd(8) mapping during install
I cannot get umlauts on the console after login, like
login: (fancy umlauts visible here)
but
login: mab
Password:
$ (no umlauts seen when pressing corresponding keys)
$ cat /etc/kbdtype
de.nodead
The question is now how to pertain umlauts over login? What settings did
I miss?
Further info is below. Pointers to FAQ or manpages are highly
appreciated.
Thank you, mab
$ sudo wsconsctl
keyboard.type=pc-xt
keyboard.bell.pitch=400
keyboard.bell.period=100
keyboard.bell.volume=50
keyboard.bell.pitch.default=400
keyboard.bell.period.default=100
keyboard.bell.volume.default=50
wsconsctl: Use explicit arg to view keyboard.map.
keyboard.repeat.del1=400
keyboard.repeat.deln=100
keyboard.repeat.del1.default=400
keyboard.repeat.deln.default=100
keyboard.ledstate=0
keyboard.encoding=de.nodead
mouse.type=ps2
display.type=vga-pci
display.focus=1
display.screen_on=250
display.screen_off=600000
display.vblank=off
display.kbdact=off
display.msact=off
display.outact=off
There are cyrillic letters in the keyboard.map,
$ sudo wsconsctl keyboard.map
...
keycode 3 = 2 quotedbl twosuperior twosuperior
keycode 4 = 3 Cyrillic_yi L2_lstroke L2_lstroke
keycode 5 = 4 dollar
...
keycode 11 = 0 equal braceright braceright
keycode 12 = Cyrillic_hsighn question backslash backslash
keycode 13 = apostrophe grave
...
keycode 25 = p P
keycode 26 = Cyrillic_E Cyrillic_e
keycode 27 = plus asterisk asciitilde asciitilde
...
keycode 38 = l L
keycode 39 = Cyrillic_ZHE Cyrillic_zhe
keycode 40 = Cyrillic_DE Cyrillic_de
keycode 41 = asciicircum degree
...
exactly where there would be umlauts and other german specifics.
$ cat /etc/wsconsctl.conf
# $OpenBSD: wsconsctl.conf,v 1.2 2007/05/14 05:06:03 tedu Exp $
#
# wscons configurable parameters
#
#keyboard.repeat.del1=200 # change keyboard repeat/delay
#keyboard.repeat.deln=50
#keyboard.encoding=ru # use different keyboard encoding
#keyboard.bell.volume=0 # mute keyboard beep
#display.vblank=on # enable vertical sync blank for screen burner
#display.screen_off=60000 # set screen burner timeout to 60 seconds
#display.msact=off # disable screen unburn w/ mouse
Due to the output of wsconsctl (above) my understanding is that
keyboard.encoding is already set up from /etc/kbdtype.
