Hi everyone,

I have been using FreeBSD 4.9 for almost a month now, and I have to 
admit that I am presently in a very slow process in learning everything 
that I should be in using my new OS...

I have been reading some articles, on UNIX in the internet...and it is 
only now that I have discovered the power of Virtual Console(s)...

I am using an IBM R40e Thinkpad...which has a Japanese Keyboard 
layout...I have configured my keyboard layout to 105 when using X 
Windows System...No problems encountered yet...

My problem is that when I switch to another virtual console...my 
keyboard layout is no longer 105 International...

My shell is the default Bourne Shell...can anyone help or give me advice 
on where to search in the man pages about setting my virtual console 
keyboard layout to 105...

Any help and advices are really needed...
Thank you in advance...

Rommel B. Ikeda
