My keyboard is portuguese keyboard and while installing i have configured it to to the same. The installation went well. but after booting to kde login the keys are not being typed correctly. for example when i try to type root its been interpreted as r66t they key 'o' is typed as 6. and also the key 'l' is mapped as 3. what may be the problem. and how should i correct it. please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Are you using a laptop? The fn key might be locked down, as this matches up on my laptop. or similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 If not the fn, try the num lock too. If not, post back with update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
