- SHARED KEYBOARD LAYOUT
-
- In Debian the default keyboard layout is shared between the console
- and X. It is specified in /etc/default/keyboard.
-
-
- USING DEBCONF FOR EASIER CONFIGURATION
-
- While it will be safe to edit directly the configuration files
- (/etc/default/keyboard and /etc/default/console-setup) perhaps it will
- be easier to use
-
- dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
- dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
-
- If your keyboard configuration is too complex, Debconf may refuse to
- reconfigure it. This doesn't mean this configuration is not supported
- and can not be used on the console. It only means you have to edit
- the configuration files by hand.
-
- Consult the manual pages keyboard(5), console-setup(5) and setupcon(1).

- DEBIAN PACKAGES
-
- keyboard-configuration
- This package creates and maintains the configuration file
- /etc/default/keyboard.
-
- console-setup
- This package is responsible for the actual configuration of the
- console (font and keyboard). It is responsible for the
- configuration file /etc/default/console-setup.
-
- console-setup-mini
- This is a limited version of console-setup. It doesn't create a file
- /etc/default/console-setup but it will use such a file if it exists.
- Notice that if /etc/default/console-setup doesn't exist, then no
- font will be loaded so some non-ASCII symbols will not display
- correctly. However, Unicode/non-Unicode mode and the charmap will
- still be configured according to the current locale.
