Keyboard-setting can't be changed #146

Open rabelux opened 3 years ago

rabelux commented 3 years ago

In personal settings hitting the keybard-option shows "loading keyboard submodule" and then returns to the previous screen. There is nothing that I can do here. It says my keyboard layout is US but when typing it's DE as set in locales (y and z aren't swapped) grafik

If you need more infos let me know. I'm new to armbian and started setting up my NanopiM4 headless server today. OS: Armbian 21.05.2 stable Armbian-Config: 21.05.3

Can you execute dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration and see what happens?

rabelux commented 3 years ago

Well nothing happens. It's busy for a second then returns.

Perhaps this helps https://benohead.com/blog/2012/04/27/debian-change-the-keyboard-layout-from-the-console/

Just to be clear: The layout works as expected and is DE, it's just that armbian-config displays US. As I've just booted a fresh install of armbian which I dowloaded here I thought I'll let you know. Not a major bug, just a little confusing.

Oh and now when I entered "personal settings" Locales language preview was empty. Then I entered it, went up and down, pressed esc and now I have C.UTF-8 as displayed language. I did't press anything else, just up und down, no enter. Something weird is going on here... grafik

have you tried sudo nano /etc/default/keyboard and change settings? Link: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Fine-Tuning/

Im experiencing this as well. It doesnt matter what I Change it to or how I Change it, it doesn't actually change. Mine is in an unusable state.

EricaLinaG commented 11 months ago

I have overcome this to some degree by using setxkbmap from the command line. However I have to do that every time I login. I get multiple warnings about more than one variant defined. Over riding xserver.

I have tried to find where it actually is defined with no luck. It is not defined in the standard places. /etc/X11 is where it should be.

Basically my computer is unusable until I override the keyboard settings which I can't find and armbian-config has no effect over. Although that is what set it this way in the first place.

Stumbled upon this, as it is not working on my Orange Pi Zero3 neither. Running armbian minimal bookworm. Even running dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration is failing....

I need to do this again, so I'll have to remember how I got it working. I'll give it a try on my new vim4.
