Changing keyboard layout doesn't work

Open Qwertylala1 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

What happened?

When I select the option "LO003 - Change Keyboard layout " I'm not given any choices, instead update-initramfs runs immediately and armbian-config exits.

I'm running a server/CLI image of Armbian Bookworm with the latest updates installed on an Orange Pi 5 Plus. Armbian-config was updated today to 24.11.2 but it did the same thing with the previous version (24.11.1.1111.090121).

How to reproduce?

Choose LO003 - Change Keyboard layout option in armbian-config.

On which host OS are you running the build script and observing this problem?

Debian 12 Bookworm

Hey @Qwertylala1 !

Looks like it's your first time interacting with Armbian here on GitHub.

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to report an issue :heart:.

Don't forget to star :star: the repo.

Confirmed. Looking into.

There is nothing extraordinary behind this command. It just calls:

dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

which works fine on Odroid M1 running same Bookworm OS as a base. I could reproduce this on some old Orangepizeroplus ... which doesn't have a console ...

I would say this problem is not within this utility but its something related to the kernel. Lets' keep this issue open if someone got some ideas ...

So, the question is, what happens when @Qwertylala1 runs that command dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration. Can you tell us, please?

FWIW, I was also not given anything to choose from on a Noble system on BPi M2+ Allwinner H3 SOC.
