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. + + Note that the kernel command line options + vconsole.keymap=, + vconsole.keymap.toggle=, + vconsole.font=, + vconsole.font.map=, + vconsole.font.unimap= can be used + to override the console settings at boot. + + Depending on the operating system other + configuration files might be checked for configuration + of the virtual console as well, however only as + fallback. + + + + Options + + The following options are understood: + + + + + KEYMAP= + KEYMAP_TOGGLE= + + Configures the key + mapping table of for they + keyboard. KEYMAP= + defaults to us if + not set. The + KEYMAP_TOGGLE= can + be used to configured a second toggle + keymap and is by default + unset. + + + + FONT= + FONT_MAP= + FONT_UNIMAP= + + Configures the console + font, the console map and the unicode + font map.
