Solved Can't find a way to switch from Us to Spanish keyboard layout

[helmet1080]

Hey! What's up! I need to switch from US keyboard layout to Spanish. How can I do that in FreeBSD 14. I tested another solutions on the forum but not working, so.

Thank you for your reply!

For console, set

keymap="es"

in /etc/rc.conf

For X or Wayland, it is another issue. What are you using for the Desktop Environment / Window Manager / compositor?

The following should do the trick:

<code shell>
$ kbdmap
</code>

There is also a great handbook about FreeBSD.

I'm using xfce. I don't know the compositor.

Where should I put that?

With Xfce, keyboard layout is set by settings manager.

xfce:xfce4-settings:keyboard [Xfce Docs]
