loadkeys: Create a kernel source table.
$ loadkeys --mktable
try on your machine
The loadkeys command is used in Linux systems to load the specified keymap (keyboard layout) into the kernel keymap table. It allows the user to change or set the keyboard layout according to their preferences.
The --mktable option in loadkeys --mktable generates a binary representation of the specified keymap and updates the keymap table. This option helps in creating or modifying keymaps by converting an ASCII representation of the keymap into a binary format that the kernel can understand.
In summary, the loadkeys --mktable command is used to convert and load a keymap into the kernel keymap table in a binary format.
