Greetings,

Well i wanted to ask for a console ( the Alt+ Fn  things ) who controls 
the default keymap ,
the default codepage , the default iocharset/ nls if you prefer . It is 
my fear that it's the kernel
so if someone wants to change them he would have to recompile the kernel 
, but then the
question remains . Upon boot ( init level 3  always ) which language 
will be used ?
Although i don't think that it plays any role , let's assume a Fedora 
Core 4 machine (
it should be the same regardless of the Fedora Core version but anyway )

Regards,
   Kostas
