During boot I get these errormessages: [*] Setting user font.... [ok] Cannot open file default8x16 [*] Loading key mappings... Cannot open file windowkeys Error loading key mappings [!!] http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=70574 Quoting user wilburpan Looking at /etc/init.d/keymaps and /etc/init.d/consolefont, you can see that these scripts call the programs /usr/bin/loadkeys and /usr/bin/setfont. Looking at the man pages for these programs, it appears that these programs expect to find data in Code: /usr/usr/share/keymaps /usr/usr/share/consolefonts /usr/usr/share/unimaps /usr/usr/share/consoletrans In my /usr directory, this is all in Code: /usr/share/keymaps /usr/share/consolefonts /usr/share/unimaps /usr/share/consoletrans So I created a bunch of symlinks from /usr/share to /usr/usr/share, and the error messages went away. Sounds like a "prefix" problem to me. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Hey, I'd just like to add that even if you add the symlinks to fix loadkeys' behaviour, it still dies out with a flex parser error when you try a 'loadkeys dvorak'.
