Hello

I'm trying to use the Xubuntu-based BitDefender Rescue Disk, and having an issue. Posting in their forum didn't return anything, so I figured I should ask here next.

I can successfully boot up BitDefender in French on a laptop from a USB key, but when I launch Terminal, the layout is for the US keyboard, and "loadkeys fr" just outputs an error (""Unknown keysim 'trademark'").

Does someone know how to change the keyboard layout in the command-line?

Thank you.

I think you use
setxkbmap

try man setxkbmap for details.

Thanks, but no go :-/

Tried this:
1. apt-get install console-data: Chose AZERTY/France
2. setxkbmap
3. setxkbmap -layout fr
4. setxkbmap -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 -layout fr

All result in "Cannot open display". I guess it's X-related but I'm no expert of this thing.

Anybody knows what I could try?

Thank you.

Do you mean the 'Linux console' (like what some old people call the "DOS prompt")?

In that case, then it's indeed 'loadkeys' that you use to configure a layout.
The 'setxkbmap' is for the graphical interface so they do not apply here.

AFAIK, the use of 'loadkeys' and the Linux console does not take much attention. In Ubuntu you even need to install the package for the Linux console layouts.

Do the proper thing, run 'loadkeys' with the --verbose flag and check to find the source of the problem.

Thanks for the help. Here's the output of "loadkeys --verbose fr" typed in a terminal window in X:

After typing this, the keyboard layout is still set to US.

FWIW, this Xubuntu-based liveCD from BitDefender runs Ubuntu 9.10.

For those having the same problem: (on the liveCD I had at least) "setxkbmap" must be run as non-root, while "loadkeys" must be run as root.
