Hi!

I have an EV56 Alpha machine and I'm having trouble setting the keymap
(I live in switzerland).
I already had this problem with 5.1-C so I decided to install 5.2-RC2
but it's still not working.

Here is my rc.conf:

zudip$ cat /etc/rc.conf 
[..]
keymap="swissfrench.iso.acc"
[..]

The swissfrench.iso.acc file is in:
/usr/share/syscons/keymaps/swissfrench.iso.acc.kbd

So it should work right ?
Any idea ? Maybe I should set something before FreeBSD starts ?

Setting XkbModel to pc105 and XkbLayout to fr_CH in XF86Config makes the
keyboard work properly under X.

Regards
