Keyboard layout cannot be changed #2

I tried to change the keyboard layout to some German layout using raspi-config. When I choose the menu entry raspi-config shows an error. It's difficult to hit the right keys in Midnight Commander using a non-US keyboard.

I found a way to change the keyboard layout manually. Unfortunately it still doesn't work using raspi-config.

  1. Install setupcon: apt-get install console-setup
  2. Edit /etc/default/keyboard and change the value of XKBLAYOUT to your language/region
  3. Run setupcon

You have to be root to do all of these tasks. Do it from the file manager.

As for raspi-config, I installed the missing package "keyboard-configuration": apt-get install keyboard-configuration

raspi-config doesn't show the error message any more, but I get a warning, which is displayed twice: update-rc.d: warning: start and stop actions are no longer supported; falling back to defaults
