Hmm, I do have an option in kbdconfig. kbdconfig, however, at
least as far as I understand it, no longer affects the keyboard under X. At
least, the default XF86Config on Deb 1.3.1 didn't for me. There is a new
scheme for handling the keyboard with the newer versions of XFree86,
apparently. IIRC, it is possible to tell X to use the old method which uses
the kbd for text console.
What version of Deb are you using ? What version or revision or
release of X ?
As for this new setup under X, I went in and hacked my own keyboard. I
can't remember what was wrong, but something about the one supplied was
unsatisfactory.
So, let us know whether we're talkin' console, or X, and what
version, and maybe I can give some more help.
