I wonder where the Asterisk (*) is to be found on PC's keyboard Linux/W10?

The Finnish keyboard support sucks on openMSX due to problems caused by our weird AltGr key... Try to open console (F10) and write: "set kbd_mapping_mode POSITIONAL" this will disable the automatic remapping of keyboard. On console you can also say "type *" because from some reason there the keyboard works fine.

It's possible that this CP/M version only works for these MSX keyboards, but I don't think we have a SVI-738 emulated with a Finnish keyboard map (and the ROM that belongs with it). This may also complicate things....

Thanks! Time to really read through the user manual

If you want to add different localizations, BlueMSX resource page has quite a nice collection. (Swedish version is identical to Finnish version)

The ROM is one thing, the keyboard map is another... And as for that page, I don't know the source of these dumps, so we can't be sure they're clean dumps or have been modified by someone. We'd like to have clean original dumps.
