That sounds like an excellent idea to try. Unfortunately, before you mentioned it in this e-mail, I didn't know such a thing existed. Can you point me at some documentation where I can learn about it (I don't mind reading manuals). And will virtual terminals use my specified keyboard layout (English Dvorak)? In the past, command-line 'rescue' utilities have had this annoying habit of 'dumping' me in a qwerty keyboard layout, and I don't type qwerty. Having to type qwerty on a dvorak keyboard with dvorak key arrangement is a nightmare. -- Sincerely, Aere -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389904 Title: With the recent update to xserver-xorg-video-intel, system boots to a black screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1389904/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
