+
+ <para>The <filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> file
+ configures the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping
+ and console font.</para>
+
+ <para>The basic file format of the
+ <filename>vconsole.conf</filename> is a set of
+ environment-like shell-compatible variable
+ assignments. It is possible to source the
+ configuration from shell scripts, however, beyond mere
+ variable assignments no shell features are supported,
+ allowing applications to read the file without
+ containing a shell compatible execution engine.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the kernel command line options
+ <varname>vconsole.keymap=</varname>,
+ <varname>vconsole.keymap.toggle=</varname>,
+ <varname>vconsole.font=</varname>,
+ <varname>vconsole.font.map=</varname>,
+ <varname>vconsole.font.unimap=</varname> can be used
+ to override the console settings at boot.</para>
+
+ <para>Depending on the operating system other
+ configuration files might be checked for configuration
+ of the virtual console as well, however only as
+ fallback.</para>
