Erica Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 Hello, I am attempting to set my armbian machine up to match my Arch install on my Intel box. I like to use en-us. Utf8 with the 'US intl with dead keys' variant. But I cannot find it. Im currently using the intl variant but that requires the use of altgr. And doesn't work with my keyboard or me. Is there something I need to install to get the 'with dead keys' variant which does not Require the use of altgr? 0 Quote
Solution Werner Posted July 5, 2023 Solution Posted July 5, 2023 dpkg-reconfigure locales to make sure en_US UTF8 is available and set default dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration should do the rest 0 Quote
Erica Posted July 5, 2023 Author Posted July 5, 2023 I do seem to have some problems with my locale. I've resorted to the manual method as I thought the configurator was broken. This problem seems to be with locale-gen, not the configurator as the behavior is the same. It generates locales for everything even though en_US.UTF-8 is the only line uncommented. ``` ─(15:35:%)── grep -v "^#.*" /etc/locale.gen en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 ``` It finally finished. I'll continue with the next steps again and see how it goes. My understanding is that the variant that should work is 'intl'. I tried 'qwerty-us-deadkeys with no luck, but my locales were broken. 0 Quote
Erica Posted July 5, 2023 Author Posted July 5, 2023 Thank you so much. I have no idea how it was so broken. I installed months ago and dont remember too much about how that went. My keyboard is happy now. 0 Quote
