Re: Keyboard: Problems with German Umlauts: ä. ö, ü ...

[Joerg Anslik <joerg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

>I have installed DF with standard 103 german keyboard and 850 font (Western Europe). However, the german Umlauts don't work neither on console nor under X.

I just put this stuff into my kernel config file, and it works fine:


# Teutonisches Tastaturlayout einbinden
options         ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions     ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP="german.iso"
options         SC_DFLT_FONT
makeoptions     SC_DFLT_FONT=iso15


Just rebuild your kernel, and the system switches to german keyboard
layout during boot. You don't have to fiddle around with additional
entries in /etc/rc.conf...und die Umlaute gehen auch :)
