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? John S wrote: > After the system starts and before I log on to the system > the keys and letters åäö and ÅÄÖ seem to work OK.
