Slax 5.1.8 - How to change keyboard layout at command line
Hi,
I've just ran and tested the Slax Live CD and what an excellent live distro it is ! Now by default it gets you into Run level 3 , command line. As I use an English keyboard what command should I use to map correctly. When ever I try to use the "|" charcter I get ">" etc due to incorrect country codes. Is "loadkeys" the answer ? Thanks !

And SLAX is not even based on Slackware anymore, it is a debian derivative nowadays, so please post your feedback on their forum instead of here. |
