Hmmm... is that the key swapping thing for ISO keyboards? Where are
those keys located on your keyboard?

AFAIR, teh '<>' key is an additional key on European (ISO?) keyboards
vs. Amercian keyboards, and there is some key swapping logic involving
that key and one other key (AFAIR, the one left of '1').

Check your kernel boot messages, if there is a difference to the
messages related to your keyboard detection.
