<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> file
|
|
configures the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping
|
|
and console font.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The basic file format of the
|
|
<filename>vconsole.conf</filename> is a
|
|
newline-separated list environment-like
|
|
shell-compatible variable assignments. It is possible
|
|
to source the configuration from shell scripts,
|
|
however, beyond mere variable assignments no shell
|
|
features are supported, allowing applications to read
|
|
the file without implementing a shell compatible
|
|
execution engine.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the kernel command line options
|
|
<varname>vconsole.keymap=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.keymap.toggle=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font.map=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font.unimap=</varname> may be used
|
|
to override the console settings at boot.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Depending on the operating system other
|
|
configuration files might be checked for configuration
|
|
of the virtual console as well, however only as
|
|
fallback.</para>
