Hullo again,

I can't help you with your exact problem, but

address@hidden 写道:
In the latter case, I was able to login via 'loadkeys
/run/current-system/profile/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz/de-latin1' in TTY (where I went with C-M-F2 or F3, nvm); but now, I am unable to set the keymap via loadkeys. When I dont use sudo, I receive the message 'data descriptor referring to console couldnt be found' (translated from german "Dateideskriptor, der auf die Konsole verweist, konnte nicht gefunden werden."); if I do use sudo, I dont get an error, but
the keyboard layout doesnt change.

I ran ‘sudo loadkeys de-latin1’ on VT 2, where my ‘y’ key now does the bad thing. So it works here.

This mix of loadkeys and setxkbmap confuses me, though: are you trying to log in on a VT (the Linux console), or X?

‘loadkeys’ only handles the former, ‘setxkbmap’ only the latter. They are entirely separate.

Kind regards,

T G-R
