Attilio: is this patch OK with you? The testresults: - keymap switching works now :-) - VT1 does get quite a few messages "Reloading keymap" and "Reloaded keymap", but it does not get totally flooded, so that is acceptable - the change causes frontend crashes in some situations (see below) :-( - I have now seen a situation where regular + and - don't work to expand/collapse a the full country list (#343244), but instead activate searching; not sure what is happening exactly though as it works in other cases The frontend crashes occur only if the frontend is running while the active console is not VT5 (e.g. VT1 or VT2). I've only seen the crashes while netcfg or partman were running, i.e. when a C program is running; not sure if that is significant. I am willing to ignore this issue for RC1, but I would very much hope it can be resolved before the Etch release!
