2023-08-29 16:50:36 Chad Smith description On the raspi arm64 server image, I used to use cloud-init's keyboard module to set my keyboard to GB by default. However, on mantic localectl (which the keyboard module uses) is now reporting: $ localectl set-x11-keymap gb pc105 Setting X11 and console keymaps is not supported in Debian So ... how do I get my £ key by default now? Or should this be filed against systemd as well? On the raspi arm64 server image, I used to use cloud-init's keyboard module to set my keyboard to GB by default. However, on mantic localectl (which the keyboard module uses) is now reporting:   $ localectl set-x11-keymap gb pc105   Setting X11 and console keymaps is not supported in Debian So ... how do I get my £ key by default now? Or should this be filed against systemd as well? === update ==== cloud-init 23.3 release now writes /etc/default/keyboard directly instead of calling: localectl set-x11-keymap. After setting keymap/layout, cloud-init also runs: systemctl restart console-setup. The remaining question is do we want to improve usability of the error message or hints/docs for admins describing how to set up keymap/layout?
