The solution was indeed to load fr.iso.acc with kbdcontrol and then to use vidcontrol for first loading an iso 8x8 font, then the accented letters work, and then go to 80x60 which now consents to work. So the command is vidcontrol -f 8x8 /usr/share/syscons/fonts/*** vidcontrol 80x60 This was not really clear from the man page. -- Michel TALON To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
