Package: console-setup
Version: 1.6
Severity: normal
The "/" key from my abnt2 keyboard doesn't work on the console after configuring
it with console-setup. If I edit the
/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwerty/br-abnt2.kmap.gz ading the following file
keycode 89 = slash question degree
and then I type "loadkeys br-abnt2" the "/" key works fine.
Also, the "/" does work on xorg (which seems to use the same keyboard symbol
rules as console-setup) without I having to do anything else.
This is what I have on my keyboard section of xorg.conf. Nothing special, debian
made it for me:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "abnt2"
Option "XkbLayout" "br"
Option "XkbVariant" "abnt2"
EndSection
I've seen other people on the internet complaining about this problem. Although
I'm unsure on what's different between my abnt2 keyboard and the abnt2 keyboards
that work, I'm aware that I'm not the only person having this kind of problem.
