/usr/sbin/galternatives
pi2# apropos alternatives
galternatives (1) - A front-end to the update-alternatives
update-alternatives (8) - maintain symbolic links determining default commands
update-java-alternatives (8) - update alternatives for jre/sdk installations
pi2#
That may not be it, I don't see keyboard listed in it. Try apropos default too.
I forget what it was I changed, it was about 3 Debian boxes and a year
ago, but I had to undo what I'd done and do it the Debian way. I miss
OpenBSD for its simplicity but they won't touch the Pi yet. NetBSD
and FreeBSD but they aren't as polished as Raspbian. I don't like
software that tells me how to run my life. I don't mind reading
documentation that tells me unavoidable facts but I don't like
studying how somebody else decided to set something up.
I haven't turned my lathe on in a year or so, I've got one of the
Chinese ones. I was turning down the rotors in electric motors to
epoxy on magnets and turn them into alternators. 10 years ago. Small
lathe, 8 hours per motor, it got old.
