In personal settings hitting the keybard-option shows "loading keyboard submodule" and then returns to the previous screen.
There is nothing that I can do here. It says my keyboard layout is US but when typing it's DE as set in locales (y and z aren't swapped)

If you need more infos let me know. I'm new to armbian and started setting up my NanopiM4 headless server today.
OS: Armbian 21.05.2 stable
Armbian-Config: 21.05.3

Can you execute dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration and see what happens?

Well nothing happens. It's busy for a second then returns.

Just to be clear:
The layout works as expected and is DE, it's just that armbian-config displays US.
As I've just booted a fresh install of armbian which I dowloaded here I thought I'll let you know.
Not a major bug, just a little confusing.

Oh and now when I entered "personal settings" Locales language preview was empty. Then I entered it, went up and down, pressed esc and now I have C.UTF-8 as displayed language. I did't press anything else, just up und down, no enter.
Something weird is going on here...

have you tried sudo nano /etc/default/keyboard and change settings?

Im experiencing this as well.
It doesnt matter what I Change it to or how I Change it, it doesn't actually change.
Mine is in an unusable state.

I have overcome this to some degree by using setxkbmap from the command line.
However I have to do that every time I login.
I get multiple warnings about more than one variant defined. Over riding xserver.

I have tried to find where it actually is defined with no luck. It is not defined in the standard places. /etc/X11 is where it should be.

Basically my computer is unusable until I override the keyboard settings which I can't find and armbian-config has no effect over. Although that is what set it this way in the first place.
