Is there any support for other keyboards than the QWERTY type. I am
interested in a german QWERTZ layout.

I wonder as there is no history function with the cl input? I just get
chaotic characters with the arrow keys.

Kind regards

see kbmap(1) and kbmap(3).  also the recent discussion on building a
kernel with a builtin map so passwords containing letters located
in different locations on the qwertz layout can be typed without
confusion.  http://9fans.net/archive/2008/07
