9fat:
cp /sys/lib/kbmap/uk /n/9fat

try again with kbmap=uk and reboot.

Thanks for reply.

putting kbmap=uk into plan9.ini
gives a message

        boot: can't open kbd map: 'uk' file does not exist.

So I tried kbmap=/sys/lib//kbmap/uk in plan9.ini This didn't work either. I got the message

        boot: can't open kbd map: 'sys' file does not exist.

Not sure what the next step is, so any help is much appreciated

Hi,

I want to setup my new plan9 termnial with a UK keyboard. I found kbmap but
this appears to be an interactive program. Even if you do

         kbmap /sys/lib/kbmap/uk

it still acts in an interactive manner. Is this right?

A qick glance at the code reveals that
cp /sys/lib/kbmap/uk /dev/kbmap (put into my lib/ profile)

should work too, and it does. But is this the 'correct' way to do it? I just want my keyboard to be the right one when when my terminal windows
start.


TIA

Bob
