        ÂDid you do aptitude install locales localeconf?

        ÂOr dpkg-reconfigure them, if already there?

        Unless you disable the XKB extension in
/etc/X11/XF86Config(-4) the console configurations wonât affect X.

        What are your XKB configs?  Either check the above mentioned
config file, or do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86.

        Another tip would be to try xkeycaps.

        Typically locales are set in /etc/environment.  But your
problem seem to be more of keymaps than of locales.

        POSIX is just the default.

        Not that I know.  It is one of the weak points of GNU/Linux,
together with desktop printer setup and sound I guess.
