Title: qemu CorePlus 6.2 keymap de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap ?
Post by: DJLinux on May 10, 2015, 04:13:37 PM

Hello tiny core linux is new for me after one hour of trying
i build a new working freebasic extensions so tiny core works greate with qemu.

but if i try a german keyboard layout (on text console not X-GUI)
loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap
or
loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwertz/de-latin1.kmap
or
loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwertz/de.kmap

y<->z are swapped and on the right key
but other keys like: äÄ,üÜ,öÖ,ß,@ not available or on the wrong position.

Is it a known TC 6.2 problem or what i'm doing wrong ?

Thank you.

DJ

You likely need to tell Qemu the keymap as well (-k de or similar). Also for non-ascii keys, the default font doesn't have those, see the wiki for how to change the console font.
