-
- <para>The <filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> file configures
- the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping and console font. It is
- applied at boot by
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
-
- <para>The basic file format of the
- <filename>vconsole.conf</filename> is a newline-separated list 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 implementing 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> may 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>
