Don't want US keyboard layout

Morning all,
Although I've got X working nicely (really !) on my 4.10 installation, I
thought I'd change my console from sc to vt because I like pretty
colours.
But the keyboard layout is now US.
kbdcontrol says "inappropriate ioctl" when trying to load the right one
by hand. kbdcontrol -d works though.
These are the important bits of my kernel configuration. There is also
of course the .conf entry to load the uk keyboard which worked under sc
but not now with vt. I originally only changed sc for vt but later added
the keymap options between swearing at it repeatedly and tearing my hair
out.
device atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD
device atkbd0 at atkbdc? irq 1 flags 0x1
device psm0 at atkbdc? irq 12
device vga0 at isa?
pseudo-device splash
options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP="uk.iso"
device vt0 at isa?
options PCVT_FREEBSD=410
Any ideas ?
Jon
