It doesn`t work to me
I've tried to do this, but it didn't work.
I have the Slackware 9.0 and a ABNT2 keyboard,
I decompressed an ABNT2 map.gz and reading the .map,
this file has the CCedilha key (code 38 with keymaps), that's ok.
But running loadkeys <kbmap> nothing changes.
Thanks,
PJota

Try loading the keymap without uncompress it...
I have a french keymap, and loadkeys /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty/fr-latin1.map.gz works fine  |

In console? There's none.
And back to the question, take a look at /etc/rc.d/rc.keymap. |

Even MS-DOS has a hotkey to switch between languages. But Linux console hasn't?
May be hotkey is right Ctrl-Alt?
