Hello,
please correct the example for the German console fonts. (7.6.5)
KEYMAP="de-latin1" # is correct
FONT="lat0 ... needs to be changed to lat1 as well.
This is needed to display the special characters for the German
language correctly.
Thank you
Gerhard
I have
-----
# Begin /etc/sysconfig/console
UNICODE="1"
KEYMAP="de-latin1"
KEYMAP_CORRECTIONS="euro2"
#FONT="lat0-16 -m 8859-15"
FONT="Lat2-Terminus16 -m 8859-15"
# End /etc/sysconfig/console

in my /etc/sysconfig/console. Note the UNICODE="1". With this, lat0-16
works fine, while my favorite font is the Terminus.
Would you try it with UNICODE=1 again and tell the result?
Btw, thats something for LFS-support, not BLFS-support. Lets continue
talking there.
Replying to both blfs-dev and lfs-dev. Please answer on lfs-dev.
I am not familiar with the requirements for the German console. I
checked for 'lat0' in the book and fond it in two places, both sysV only:
lfs-bootscripts, specifically in rc.site, but commented out.
7.6. System V Bootscript Usage.
7.6.5. Configuring the Linux Console
We can change the reference in Chapter 7 before the release of 8.4,
but I do not want to change the bootscripts until after release of 8.4,
Let me know what the exact changes are needed.
For French, I have:
UNICODE="1"
KEYMAP="fr-latin9"
FONT="lat0-16"
That is enough. But when I set font to Lat2-Terminus16, many characters
don't display OK, for example €, û, ö...
(even with -m 8859-15).
