Bug#527620: console-setup: does not note hal restart is required to update xkb settings

[Petr Baudis <pasky@ucw.cz>]

Package: console-setup
Version: 1.34
Severity: normal


It is not obvious at all from /etc/default/console-setup that changing
the xkb options requires HAL restart. This fact should be pointed out
prominently in a comment directly above the xkb options in the default
configuration file.
