I had a similar problem with keymap layout switching to US (both tty
consoles and gnomes apps), right after a fresh install of intrepid.

What I did :

 - fresh install of intrepid (fresh formatted / partition, /home
partition unchanged)

 => keyboard mapping seems ok

 - install the binary nvidia driver (the recommended version)
 - fiddle with nvidia-settings
 - restart X

=> keyboard behavior changes : trying to enter a pipe (need to presse
AltGr + 2 on a swiss french keyboard CH_fr) results in a newline in both
gnome terminal and tty. Others 'alternate' chars behave identically.

 - remove the binary nvidia driver
 - reboot

=> keyboard is again fully functionnal

I did not try to reproduce this behavior, though. So at first sight it
could be related to the nvidia driver.
