After updating gentoo - keymaps reset to US keyboard.

Hi people.

Have been running gentoo for only 1 month but am really liking it.

After installing Kuroo (8 rc1) I discovered the greatest GUI package manager ever, also N64 emulation seems to work better on Gentoo than any OS...

I am having one problem, after doing an update

- emerge --update --deep --newuse world
- emerge --depclean
- revdep-rebuild

(let me know if i am not updating correctly).

After doing the update my machine always defaults to US keyboard (instead of UK).

How can i keep it at UK keymap?

Cheers

Hi.

Thank you for your response.

Is there any way to fix this so it doesn't default back to US in the first place?

Also should i update with just these 2 commands?

- emerge --update --deep --newuse world
- revdep-rebuild

Did u run also etc-update?

This is usefull (and racomanded at the end of an upgrade) to get the system updated.
Take care that etc-update download cpnfigurations files with "original" values so, when it wants to change a files, it shows you a diff between teh original and the new one, allowing you to keep the original, substitute with the new one or merging 2 files.
To keep your settings, discard the newer version, or merge the 2 files.

Hope this could help
