Message-ID: <20020320180328.A17898@penguin.aktivist.ru> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.23i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello. A couple of non-English users has asked me if there is an ability to have different keymaps for different vt's in kernel. It seems like kernel keeps just one translation table for all vt's. I would be interested in patching console driver to keep separate tables for separate vt's (that would allow me to include an ability to load different keymaps in next release of Linux Console Tools). Perhaps there are some ideas you can give me, or, perhaps, name a current console driver maintainer for me to discuss this idea? P.S. Please, Cc me on replies, since I'm not on the list. -- TIA, Wartan. echo "Your stdio isn't very std." -- Larry Wall in Configure from the perl distribution
