This is the last call for comments for the review of debconf templates for console-common. The reviewed templates will be sent on Tuesday, July 10, 2007 to the package maintainer as a bug report and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag. --
Template: console-data/keymap/policy
Type: select
__Choices: Select keymap from arch list, Don't touch keymap, Keep kernel keymap, Select keymap from full list
Default: Don't touch keymap
_Description: Policy for handling keymaps:
The keymap records the layout of symbols on the keyboard.
.
- 'Select keymap from arch list': select one of the predefined keymaps
specific for your architecture (recommended for non-USB keyboards);
- 'Don't touch keymap': don't overwrite the keymap in /etc/console,
which is maintained manually with install-keymap(8);
- 'Keep kernel keymap': prevent any keymap from being loaded next time
the system boots.
- 'Select keymap from full list': list all the predefined keymaps.
Recommended when using cross-architecture (often USB) keyboards.
Template: console-data/keymap/ignored
Type: note
_Description: Ignored boot-time keymap in an old location
The keymap configuration tool has been set up not to touch an existing
keymap.
.
However, there are some 'default.kmap(.gz)' file(s) either in
/etc/kbd/ or in /etc/console-tools/. These were recognized as
boot-time keymaps by older versions of the console utilities, but are
now ignored.
.
If you wish one of these to take effect on next reboot, you will have
to move it to /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz manually.
Template: console-data/keymap/family
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
Default: qwerty
_Description: Keyboard layout family:
Please specify the generic family name for the keyboard
layout. Usually, the layout family name is taken from the first keys on the
left of the top letters row of the keymap.
Template: console-data/keymap/template/layout
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
_Description: Keyboard layout:
In order to refine the keymap choice, please select the
physical layout of the keyboard.
Template: console-data/keymap/template/variant
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
_Description: Keyboard variant:
The selected keyboard layout has several variants. Please select the
one matching the keyboard.
Template: console-data/keymap/template/keymap
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
_Description: Keymap:
The selected keyboard allows a choice from a range of keymaps.
Usually these were designed either for specific tastes (for instance
with dead keys) or for specific needs (such as programming).
Template: console-data/keymap/full
Type: select
Choices: ${choices}
_Description: Keymap:
If the keyboard is designed for a different computer architecture, you should
choose a specific keymap in the full map.
Template: console-data/keymap/powerpcadb
Type: boolean
_Description: Are you ready for the ADB keycodes transition?
The kernel is configured to have the keyboard send ADB keycodes. This
behavior is now deprecated and no longer supported.
.
For best results, you should reconfigure the kernel with
CONFIG_MAC_ADBKEYCODES=n. Alternatively, you can pass
'keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=1' as an argument to the kernel.
.
Please be aware that the transition will most probably break the X
configuration, so it is strongly recommended to close all X sessions
now and adapt the configuration afterwards by running
'dpkg-reconfigure console-data'.
Template: console-data/bootmap-md5sum
Type: string
Default: none
