hello.
i recently switched to the dvorak keyboard-layout
but, the virtual terminals AND the login screen are still using qwerty.
as a result, if i need to drop back on the console, i need to use qwerty,
i did asraedy a lot of googling, but the advice seems outdated. i have already tried:
- using the keyboard-settings GUI
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-tools
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
i am currently running ubuntu 11.04 BETA
EDIT1
sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data
does the trick, but it won't survive a reboot.
converted question to bug report, bug report description:
problem:
if you chose a different keyboard layout after installation. it wil only affect the GUI components. a virtual terminal(cntrl+f1) will still use the old layout.
as a result, dropping back to a console will be impossible because that is still using the old keyboard-layout.
Steps to reproduce:
1. install ubuntu using qwerty.
2. after installation, chance the keyboard layout to something like dvorak. (try this with the GUI as wel with the CLI)
3. drop to console, try to login |
