Did you try the mappings that are in /usr/src/share/syscons/keymaps/ ? If one of them works for you, add a "keymap" entry in /etc/rc.conf (see /etc/defaults/rc.conf). Test it with something like: kbdcontrol < /dev/ttyv0 -l finnish.iso.kbd Note this is for console mapping, not for X. If you're looking to change the mappings under X, then look for xmodmap files. This is not a FreeBSD-specific issue, so the best for you would be to look in geographically-local forums for Unix or X-windows. -- Dan Pelleg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
