Hi, This bug seems to be the #276548 issue, if so the patch attached could be a workaround. I think temporarily switching to ascii mode should not cause a side-effect for any keymap, as this is the old behaviour. But I couldn't understand why this issue arose for 2.6 kernels (if this is the same problem with #276548, of course). Christian, could we try it for French and other keymaps. Note that, if this patch resolves the issue, we shouldn't see any warning message from loadkeys during the startup.
Regards, -- roktas
