Hi Marco,
all translators are started correctly, but it looks as if the keymap is
responsible for the lost ability to switch between ttys.
Whenever I use --keymap=de I can't switch, for --keymap=en_US
or --keymap=fr it works. This is the same for automatic and manual start of
the console. Probably just the F1...Fn-keys have lost their meaning for 'de'?
Best regards
Andi
