Change keymap?

(1/2) > >>

banditman:
Have followed the instructions for installing kmap.tcz and doing the command loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/uk.kmap but no change takes place still has default u.s keymap on my aspire one netbook

any help would be great :-\

banditman:
Well Ive discovered that after doing ctrl + alt +backspace then restarting x with startx it seems to work or at least partly i get the hash key and @ keys in the right place but still no sign of the good old u.k pound not anywhere on the keyboard!!!
So still not right  ???

curaga:
Did you drop to console before giving the command? It does not work completely inside X.

banditman:
Yes I killed x and restarted it again with startx and the keys changed but not fully however when I did a reboot they were back to us keys again, perhaps this is something to do with adding a boot code?

curaga:
If kmaps.tcz is in your tce directory, and loaded on boot, you can use the bootcode kmap=uk to have the kmap loaded on boot.
