https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=432369 Summary: kbd fails to start when there are >2 keymaps, blocking textmode login Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: cymerio@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- During boot, kbd shows the following message: Loading console font lat9w-16.psfu -m trivial G0:loadable [done] Found more than one keymap es Using . If you want another one, please add complete path to KEYTABLE in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard. To continue you have to write something and press Enter (it was not obvious from the message). If you fail to do so, the booting process cannot continue, and if you are in textmode you can't login (!). Once you have entered something, this text is displayed: Loading keymap (null):1: syntax error syntax error in map file key bindings not changed [failed] Loading compose table winkeys shiftctrl latin1.add [done] Start Unicode mode [done] And finally you can login, but "us" keyboard is used. The command "find / -name es.map.gz" shows two keymaps in the system: /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/olpc/es.map.gz /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/es.map.gz To get kbd starting properly I edited the file "/etc/sysconfig/keyboard", changing the variable KEYTABLE from "es.map.gz" to "/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/es.map.gz". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
