Please, help.
I need croat keymap and en.US.utf8 locale.
It can be set in every other distro but in Antix I have not been able to do it. Nothing works:
0. Setting keyboard during the installtion (Mepis install) does not work (Works in Mepis!)
1. Using Antix SYSTEM SETUP post-install would not change keyboard layout after reboot as promised
2. #km doesn't work
3. # loadkeys croat does not work
Why is such a fundamental thing not solved properly in Antix?

Try to edit /etc/default/keyboard and leave it like this

Code: Select all

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,hr"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,grp_led:scroll"
Also you may try to edit it automatically by running as root

Code: Select all

dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
In either case, reboot (or restart X server) for it to take effect.
