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.
