Description of Problem: If you make a graphical install, setup program will set the X keyboard according to your choice but not the console keyboard. If you make a text mode install, setup program will set the console keyboard according to your choice but not the X keyboard. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make a graphical install of the RedHat Roswell 2. Select an international keyboard (e.g. Turkish) 3. Setup will set the X Keyboard correctly 4. Setup will not set the console keyboard and console fonts correctly. or 1. Make a text mode install 2. Select an international keyboard 3. Setup will set the console keyboard correctly (But not the console font) 4. Setup will not set the X keyboard correctly Actual Results: Either X keyboard or console keyboard not set correct Expected Results: Whether you use graphical or text mode install program, setup should set the X keyboard, the console keyboard and the console font according to user's selection. For example if I select Turkish keyboard in a graphical install, setup will set X keyboard to "tr" and also it should set the console keyboard to "trq" and the console font to "lat5-16" Additional Information:
we use lat15-sun16 (it has nice linedrawing chars for the console). I've added the mapping from Turkish X keyboards to the trq keymap.
Same problem for "Croatian" and "Slovenian". I select them during GUI install,after installation they work ( I only tested Slovenian ) in X, but not on the console ( tested both ). Tested with Roswell-2 ( and many older versions , back to 7.0 IIRC )
Also, there is another layout for Turkey called "trf" for console. But it does not have any corresponding map under X (As far as I know). Ideally, RedHat install should allow selecting between (Turkish Q) keyboard and (Turkish F) keyboard layouts both under X and under console. (Win32 allows this). (Turkish F) is not as popular as (Turkish Q) but almost all govermental offices still uses (Turkish F) keyboards.
Just a note, lat15-sun16 does not work for Turkish keyboard. I use, lat5-16.
The installer should not only set up both the console and X11 keyboard configurations, but also offer the same set of options in both installation modes.
Deferring to future release.
