Duplicate of bug 74264. The original analysis there is probably wrong (and nobody seems to care ;-), but the point is that keymaps must be loaded with loadkeys -u ^^^^^^^^^^^ when UTF-* is used Did you do 123123 on the keyboard or shifted of each number key (shift-1 -> 1 on a french keyboard layout)? I was trying to get '&e(accented)"' which is 123 in keyboard... so no shift The only sensible thing to do with passwords is enforce them as ascii. The passwd file has no defined encoding so there's no way to keep consistency otherwise. Enforced in CVS anaconda-8.0.94-0.20030130230242 no longer allows the input of non-ASCII characters in passwords. Will check user creation in firstboot as well, as that would be affected by the same issue. |
