|
|
the keyboard layout settings on your keyboard:

|
|
|
To display the current console keyboard settings that are configured for the
|
|
virtual console:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ localectl status
|
|
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
System Locale:LANG=en_US.UTF-8
|
|
VC Keymap:us
|
|
X11 Layout:n/a

|
To check if a keyboard layout can be configured on your system, for example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ localectl list-keymaps|fgrep 106
|
|
jp 106
|
|
|
|
To set the console keyboard layout, use the following syntax:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ sudo localectl set-keymap <mapping-name>
|
|
|
|
For example, to use jp106:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ sudo localectl set-keycap jp106
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ localectl status
|
|
System Locale:LANG=en_US.UTF-8
|
|
VC Keymap:jp106
|
|
X11 Layout:jp
|
|
X11 Model:jp106
|
|
X11 Options:terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp |
