[Tails-dev] Storing keyboard & lamguage preferences
When using persistence on USB stick, is there any automatic or easy way to store preferences like interface language, keyboard language & keymap in a way they are restored at next reboot? Thanks.

It's not possible so far. We are thinking about that but the problem is that if this information is stored in persistence then the user would have to enter the passphrase first (chicken and egg problem here). And if this preference is stored outside of the persistence volume then it reveals bits of information from the user that are not encrypted. I couldn't find a ticket tracking that issue. Maybe we should create one. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ tails-dev mailing list tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev

Last time we discussed this, we decided to save language and keymap information in cleartext: https://tails.boum.org/todo/allow_choosing_language_at_installation_time/ Cheers, -- intrigeri | GnuPG key @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/intrigeri.asc | OTR fingerprint @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/otr.asc ___ tails-dev mailing list tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev
