Salutations,

Please do the following :
# echo es > /etc/vconsole.com;  ## change keyboard console mapping to
Spanish keyboard

See <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Keyboard_Configuration_in_Console>

I'd like to know the output of the which command (there usually isn't a
binary called stuff installed, so it should spit out an error message;
if your locale is working, that message is in Spanish).

Regards,
Mark
