# ProxMox - Keyboard Configs

* To reconfigure the keyboard in ProxMox, we have 2 points to change
    

1. In the Web interface
    

In **Datacenter** → **Options** → **Keyboard Layout**

1. In the Console
    

* The console does not use the same configuration as the Web, other procedures are needed.
    
* The current settings are kept in the keyboard file at
    

```bash
cat /etc/default/keyboard
```

* Example of US config
    

```powershell
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT="alt-intl"
XKBOPTIONS=""

BACKSPACE="guess"
```

* Example of PT-BR config
    

```powershell
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="br"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""

BACKSPACE="guess"
```

* To reconfigure, you can change the file directly or use the support application (recommended)
    

```bash
dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
```
