As per wiki, you need to provide fullpath to KEYMAP in vconsole.conf. You may also try using vconsole.keymap=jp106 as kernel parameter.

Re: [deleted]

You don't need the full path Docbroke, see man vconsole.conf

OP: please paste the output of `systemctl list-unit-files --state=masked`

I was about to correct that, but you did it quicker. I was reading this page https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ex … ng_changes , but realized that it was for personal keymap.

I'd rather say sth. else is making an unqualified call to loadkeys.
=> move /usr/bin/loadkeys to /usr/bin/loadkeys.bin and replace it with a shell script

#!/bin/sh
echo -n "`date` --- $USER / "  >> /tmp/whofuckswithmykeymap
cat /proc/$PPID/cmdline >> /tmp/whofuckswithmykeymap
echo " called: loadkeys $*"  >> /tmp/whofuckswithmykeymap

/usr/bin/loadkeys.bin "$@"

to log what is going on...

'key.

- as jason asked: dump the masked units, please
- cat /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/90-vconsole.rules; cat /etc/udev/rules.d/90-vconsole.rules
- cat /proc/cmdline
- stat /etc/vconsole.conf
- try to remove the empty "FONT=" setting

Nope.
Next test is to run "/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup" isntead of loadkeys. If this works, you somehow miss the udev event (look into your journal for errors)
