I had to change the keyboard setting in xorg.conf and it was fixed.

I have a HP notebook with a french keyboard. The strange thing is that when you change the keyboard setting in System>Pref>Keyboard, the change is not applied or not applied completely.

Origanly in xorg.conf the keyboard layout was set on "be" (because I live in belgium and I chose belgium keyboard on the liveCD)
Then I fond out that my keyboard is french so I chose that in system>pref>keyboard. But gnome didn't applied al the keys to the french keyboard.

After changing my xorg.conf the correct keyboard-layout is used. Of course I still can not change the keyboard layout in the systems>pref>keyboard settings menu.

Greatings,
