The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere. $ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> file configures
|
|
the virtual console, i.e. keyboard mapping and console font. It is
|
|
applied at boot by udev using <filename>90-vconsole.rules</filename> file.
|
|
You can safely mask this file if you want to avoid this kind of initialization.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The basic file format of the
|
|
<filename>vconsole.conf</filename> is a newline-separated list of
|
|
environment-like shell-compatible variable assignments. It is
|
|
possible to source the configuration from shell scripts, however,
|
|
beyond mere variable assignments no shell features are supported,
|
|
allowing applications to read the file without implementing a
|
|
shell compatible execution engine.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the kernel command line options
|
|
<varname>vconsole.keymap=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.keymap_toggle=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font_map=</varname>,
|
|
<varname>vconsole.font_unimap=</varname> may be used
|
|
to override the console settings at boot.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Depending on the operating system other configuration files
|
|
might be checked for configuration of the virtual console as well,
|
|
however only as fallback.</para>
