.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
14 |
.B setupcon |
|
15 |
is a program for fast and easy setup of the font and the keyboard on |
|
16 |
the Linux console. |
|
17 |
.SH OPTIONS |
|
18 |
.IP "-k, --keyboard-only" |
|
19 |
Setup the keyboard only, do not setup the font. |
|
20 |
.IP "-f, --font-only" |
|
21 |
Setup the font only, do not setup the keyboard. |
|
22 |
.IP "--force" |
|
23 |
Do not check whether we are on the console. Notice that you can be |
|
24 |
forced to hard-reboot your computer if you run setupcon with this |
|
25 |
option and you are on a X server. |
|
26 |
.IP "-v, --verbose" |
|
27 |
Be more verbose. Use this option if something goes wrong. |
|
28 |
.IP "--save" |
|
29 |
If you want to use setupcon early in the boot process, it is possible |
|
30 |
that /usr is not yet mounted and the required data are not available. |
|
31 |
This option makes setupcon copy the required data in |
|
32 |
/etc/console-setup in order to make it available before /usr is |
|
33 |
mounted. If you use setupcon early in the boot process, then use this |
|
34 |
option whenever you change the console configuration. |
|
35 |
.IP "--save-only" |
|
36 |
Same like --save, but do not setup the keyboard and the font. This |
|
37 |
option can be useful if you run setupcon in a X server. |
|
38 |
.IP "-h, --help" |
|
39 |
Display usage information. |
|
40 |
.IP "variant" |
|
41 |
Specifies which configuration file to use. By default the |
|
42 |
configuration file of setupcon is /etc/default/console-setup but if |
|
43 |
you use e.g. "chukchi" as variant then the configuration file will be |
|
44 |
/etc/default/console-setup.chukchi. This allows you to have several |
|
45 |
different configurations - for example one for the Chukchi language |
|
46 |
and another in /etc/default/console-setup for your default |
|
47 |
configuration. |
|
48 |
.SH BASIC USAGE |
|
49 |
Most of the time you invoke setupcon without arguments. Please look |
|
50 |
at the README file for more information. |
