Thanks for the tips! but I'm still stumped.
It seems to me I don't understand the chain of events properly.
When I start the system and get to the lines:
Sun Feb 12 14:17:52 CET 2006
FreeBSD/i386 (jfs000) (ttyv0)
login:
I can type my login which is john, but I can also type the letters ÅÄÖ
or åäö.
But as soon as I log in as john (or root) and see the message of the day
and the prompt:
$
I can no longer type ÅÄÖ or åäö - all I get is beep for each key press
for those keys.
Note also that my /etc/rc.conf has the lines
font8X8="iso-8x8"
font8x14="iso-8x14"
font8x16="iso-8x16"
keymap="swedish.iso"
Also
I set up the login classes as per the handbook and that appearently went
well.
I use only USB mouse and keyboard and not AT keyboard or mouse.
I need some sort of a clue as to what happens to those keys before I logon
and what happens during the logon process. That's where they disappear.
Any more tips?
