That's a start, but things are rather more complicated. At the moment the live setup is only setting locale. It works for display on the X desktop, but: * as you've discovered it doesn't work on the console * it's not selecting an appropriate keyboard layout, either under X or on the console To get all this *right* will be a major undertaking, I think. We *could* simply add a default keyboard layout to the setup for each language as well, but that's quite likely to be wrong for a lot of users... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "I've only once written 'SQL is my bitch' in a comment.
