With a bit of digging I resolved this. Because setupcon is installed, /etc/init.d/keymap.sh aborts. To handle this, I modified /etc/default/keyboard so that # KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz is now KMAP=/etc/console-setup/truly-ergonomic.kmap.gz I could have made this KMAP=/etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz where that file was created by install-keymap, but it seemed better to rename it and move it to /etc/console-setup. -- Joe Riel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
