I want to use the dvorak-fr-bepo keymap in the console (tty1 to 6) when I type Ctrl + Alt + F1. In particular, I need the special characters as "Ê" or "ç" since there are some in my password.
So directly when I installed Ubuntu, I chose for the Bépo layout when asked.
Nonetheless, the consequence is that I am able to type basic characters, but not special ones. For instance, when I typed BÉPO I got only "bpo".
On the contrary, when I used to use a French Azerty layout, I could type the special characters.
How do I definitely set a different keyboard-layout in the console?

Install package
console-common
, then use commandsinstall-keymap
to install a default keymap from a.kmap
file, orloadkeys
to switch between layouts. Useman
on these commands for more info.
