Good morning! As a newcomer to Debian (I've just installed Version 2.2r4), I'm having difficulty in getting the system to produce the Sterling pound symbol when [SHIFT] 3 is pressed. Instead, I get a hash (octothorp) symbol plus a new line.
When trying "kbdconfig" and selecting "/i386/qwerty/uk", the symbol appears during the testing procedure, but not thereafter. In all other aspects the UK keymap is OK. I've trawled through the "bug" archives (and Google.com), where I have found one article in which it is stated that this problem has been resolved in the "Woody" boot floppies. Is there some way in which this symbol can be activated by editing a file or files in the current Potato version? Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA -- Robin Cosby
